Abstract:
This case report details the first confirmed diagnosis of Trisomy 13 (Patau syndrome) in Mali using Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization (FISH). The male newborn presented with multiple congenital anomalies, including polydactyly and micrognathia. The diagnosis expands the understanding of Trisomy 13 in Africa, highlighting the importance of genetic testing in resource-limited settings.
