Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome ("Progeria", or "HGPS") is a rare, fatal genetic condition characterized by an appearance of accelerated aging in children. Its name is derived from the Greek and means "prematurely old." Although they are born looking healthy, children with Progeria begin to display many characteristics of accelerated aging within the first two years of life. |
