Abstract

Since 1978, 300 children with Down's syndrome have received plastic- and aesthetic-surgical corrections of the face--to the tongue, nose, and less frequently, ears and chin--so that they will be less conspicuous. The parents' satisfaction in 95% of the cases indicates that the children's situation has been improved by the operations. The children are less stigmatized and their social integration became easier.
