[An interdisciplinary coordinated therapy concept exemplified by the Cornelia de Lange syndrome].

This is a case-report of a male infant with typical signs of Cornelia de Lange syndrome. Coordination to subtype I or II of the disease is difficult, as somatical and intracerebral dysplasia (partial cerebellar aplasia) are combined. The etio-pathogenetic back-ground and the symptoms of the disorder will be discussed. Finally we point out to a omnidirectional therapeutic concept including several surgical and nonsurgical disciplines with the aim, to make life as easy as possible for these children.
