Cumulative mortality was 7.1%. Among patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, 73.8% had congenital heart defects, 21.8% had cleft palate, 13.6% had hypocalcaemia, and 7.2% had immunodeficiencies. Furthermore, 29.6% were diagnosed with autoimmune diseases, 92.9% had infections, and 93.2% had neuropsychiatric and developmental issues during follow\u2010up.
