What is Childhood Disintegrative Disorder (CDD) | Symptoms, Diagnosis & Treatments

Childhood Disintegrative Disorder (CDD), also known as Heller syndrome, is a rare condition that affects a child's development causing regression in skills they have already acquired.
Symptoms of CDD typically appear between ages 2 and 10, with regression in language ability, socialization, and moral skills. The diagnosis requires evaluation by qualified health care professionals, and there is currently no cure for CDD, but early intervention and treatment can help manage symptoms and improve a child's quality of life.
Treatment typically includes a combination of behavioral, educational, and pharmacological interventions, as well as alternative therapies and parental support.
