Summary:Our objective is to collect data and information for a better care and follow up in Cri du Chat patients. We conducted a literature review in August 2017 and then discuss the outcomes within the ABC (Associazione Bambini Cri du Chat, Italian CdC families support group).

Follow up and rehabilitation should continue lifelong as some improvements can be obtained also in older ages and not to lose acquired skills.
