Genetic testing, the presence of an extra copy of chromosome 21, a condition often referred to as trisomy 21 is indicative of Down Syndrome.
Once Fisher syndrome is identified, treatment can lead to recovery in as soon as two to four weeks after the symptoms are initially acquired.
This disorder was identified over a century ago, but its cause is still unknown

Down syndrome, Down's syndrome, or trisomy 21 is a chromosomal disorder caused by the presence of all or part of an extra 21st chromosome. It is named after John Langdon Down, the British Doctor Who described the syndrome in 1866. The disorder was identified as a chromosome 21 trisomy by Jérôme Lejeune in 1959. The condition is characterized by a combination of major and minor differences in structure. Often Down syndrome is associated with some impairment of cognitive ability and physical growth as well as facial appearance. Down syndrome in a baby can be identified with amniocentesis during pregnancy or at birth.
Down Syndrome is named after Dr. John Langdon Down, the British doctor who first identified the syndrome in 1862. Dr. Langdon Down went on to publicize his theory in 1866.
Chromosomal disorders can be observed in a human karyotype. It can show whether there are extra chromosomes, or missing chromosomes, or malformed chromosomes, or whether chromosomes have extra pieces, or missing pieces.
Two types of Gerstmann syndrome have been identified: an acquired form that occurs in adults who have suffered brain injury through stroke or trauma, and a developmental form that has been noted in children.
The first gene causing lissencephaly, LIS1, was identified in patients with Miller-Dieker syndrome, a genetic syndrome caused by deletions of chromosome 17 that is a combination of lissencephaly and other facial deformities
People with Klippel Feil syndrome are often identified due to three major characteristics: a short neck, a low hairline, and restricted neck mobility due to the fused cervical vertebrae.
The neurological basis of the disorder should be clearly explained, and reasonable bypass strategies should be immediately identified and implemented.
