Cohen Syndrome

Cohen Syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in a specific gene, affecting how some body systems develop and function. People with this condition often experience distinctive facial features, vision problems like myopia, and delayed growth, leading to shorter stature. They may also have low muscle tone, intellectual challenges, and difficulty with motor skills. Additionally, Cohen Syndrome can cause blood cell abnormalities and immune system issues, increasing infection risk. The severity varies among individuals, and there is no cure. Management focuses on addressing symptoms and providing supportive care to improve quality of life.
