Ten-year survival of children with trisomy 13 or trisomy 18: a multi-registry European cohort study

Conclusions
This multi-registry European study found that despite extremely high neonatal mortality in children with T13 and T18, 32% and 21%, respectively, of those who survived to 4 weeks were likely to survive to age 10 years. These reliable survival estimates are useful to inform counselling of parents after prenatal diagnosis.
