摘要
A survey of the health problems of 87 individuals with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita revealed a high proportion (51) with major feeding difficulties in infancy. This was generally related to structural abnormalities of the the jaw and tongue. Children thus involved were more prone to recurrent chest infections, constipation, and poor growth and weight gain. In addition, there was a strong association between initial feeding difficulties and subsequent language problems. Early identification of a sub-group of children with arthrogryposis multiplex congenita is therefore possible who may require continuing therapy from a number of disciplines.
