Cohen syndrome is a rare genetic disorder caused by a recessive gene. Children with Cohen syndrome have learning difficulties and a characteristic appearance. Features of the syndrome are not all well defined which makes diagnosis difficult.
The Cohen Syndrome Support Group is a voluntary organisation which provides the following:
- Information on the syndrome.
- Leaflet (available on receipt of a stamped addressed envelope) and a booklet for a small charge (contact the Group for details).
- Parent-to-parent support.
- A quarterly newsletter.
