Trisomy 13 was first observed by Thomas Bartholin in 1657, [11] [12] but the chromosomal nature of the disease was ascertained by Dr. Klaus Patau and Dr. Eeva Therman in 1960. [13] The disease is named in Patau's honor. In England and Wales during 2008–09, there were 172 diagnoses of Patau syndrome (trisomy 13), with 91% of diagnoses made ...

Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome), trisomy 18 (Edwards syndrome) Triploid syndrome , also called triploidy , is a chromosomal disorder in which a fetus has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two.
Although many children with holoprosencephaly have normal chromosomes, specific chromosomal abnormalities have been identified in some patients (trisomy of chromosome 13, also known as Patau syndrome). There is evidence that in some families, HPE is inherited (autosomal dominant as well as autosomal or X-linked recessive inheritance).

The next frequently involved are 9, 13, 15, 18, 20 and 22. [8] It has been observed that CPM involving the sex chromosomes usually has no adverse effects on fetal development. [9] The common autosomal trisomies (21, 18, 13) made up a smaller number of cases of mosaicism detected on CVS, but were more often confirmed in fetal tissue (19%). [3]
However, a retrospective Canadian study of 254 children with trisomy 18 demonstrated ten-year survival of 9.8%, and another found that 68.6% of children with surgical intervention survived infancy. [21] Though rare, some persons with Trisomy 18 survive into their twenties and thirties with the current eldest being well over 50 years.
