Patau syndrome, also known as trisomy 13, occurs when a person has an extra copy of chromosome 13. This typically arises from a random error during cell division in the formation of eggs or sperm, leading to a fertilized egg with three copies of chromosome 13 instead of the usual two. The risk of having a child with Patau syndrome increases with maternal age. It is not inherited in a typical Mendelian fashion, meaning it usually occurs sporadically rather than being passed down through families.

in Patau there is an extra chromosome in chromosome 13, in Edwars it the extra chromosome is in chromosome 18
There is no such sydrome
