Common autosomal chromosomal abnormalities include Down syndrome (trisomy 21), Edwards syndrome (trisomy 18), Patau syndrome (trisomy 13), and Turner syndrome (monosomy X). These abnormalities result from errors in chromosome number, leading to characteristic physical and developmental features. Diagnosis is often made through genetic testing such as karyotyping or chromosomal microarray analysis.
