Abstract

Down syndrome is a genetic syndrome related to trisomy 21, and characterized by intellectual and adaptive deficiencies, facial deformities, cardiopathiacenitis and hypotonia that determine a specific cognitive behavioral phenotype. The behavioral and psychiatric cognitive phenotype and its evolutionary profile impose bioethical considerations in the down to promote better and personalized clinical and relief, diagnostic and therapeutic strategies to favor an adequate insertion of the down in the scholastic and work environment.
