[Course of a child born with a transfusion-transfusion syndrome from prenatal to college]

Abstract

The literature concerning the neurocognitive evolution of children with transfusion-transfusion syndrome (TTS) is poor beyond the first year of life. It is therefore of particular interest to trace the developmental and management pathway, from the age of 18 months to 11 years, of a boy who presented with TTS in utero. This example illustrates the benefit of early multidisciplinary support and the diagnostic issues raised with the development of the child.

Keywords: approche multidimensionnelle; capacité cognitive; cognitive ability; developmental outcome; devenir développemental; devenir neurologique; multidimensional approach; neurological outcome; syndrome transfuseur-transfusé; transfusion-transmitted syndrome.
