What is<\/em> Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS)?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n
\n \n \n
\n

PWS (Prader-Willi Syndrome) is a rare and very complex non-inherited genetic disorder in which several genes on the 15th chromosome are deleted or unexpressed. The common characteristics of PWS are small hands and\n feet, abnormal growth and body composition (small stature, very low lean body mass and early onset childhood obesity), hypotonia (weak muscles) at birth, insatiable hunger, extreme obesity and intellectual disability. In recent years,\n the syndrome has been genetically characterised as an abnormality of chromosome 15, and definitive diagnosis is now based on genetic testing.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
