Cri du chat syndrome is typically caused by a deletion of a portion of chromosome 5, which is usually a spontaneous genetic mutation rather than an inherited condition. Most cases occur randomly during the formation of reproductive cells or early fetal development. However, in rare cases, it can be inherited from a parent who carries a balanced translocation involving chromosome 5. Genetic counseling can help families understand the risks and implications of the syndrome.
