But, there is no information in the english literature about 1-year-old baby with DS who is complicated with chylothorax. Aplasia of the twelfth rib is rare but found to be more common in DS than in normals. We report on a 1-year-old girl with DS refered to our clinic with signs and symptoms of respiratory distress.
