Alobar is considered the most severe manifesta- tion, with patients exhibiting premaxillary agenesis and unilateral or bilateral cleft lip. Approximately half of the infants born with this form of the disease die before the age of 4 to 5 months, and 20% to 30% live for at least 1 year.3 Semilobar holoprosencephaly results from less development of the anterior brain structures, with only partial separation into two hemispheres. In this form of the disease, the facial anomalies are mild or absent. Patients with lobar ho- loprosencephaly, considered the least severe expres- sion of the disease, are less clinically abnormal than patients with alobar or semilobar holoprosenceph- aly. These patients may exhibit mild or moderate developmental delay, hypothalamic-pituitary dys- function, or visual problems.6 Fig 2 CT scan demonstrating semilobar holoprosencephaly.

  • A Anencephaly
    Glossary of Birth Anomaly Terms: A Anencephaly: A deadly birth anomaly where most of the brain and skull did not form. Anomaly: Any part of the body or chromosomes that has an unusual or irregular structure. Aortic valve stenosis: The aortic valve controls the flow of blood from the left ventricle of the heart to the aorta, which takes the blood to the rest of the body. If there is stenosis of this valve, the valve has space for blood to flow through, but it is too narrow. Atresia: Lack of an opening where there should be one. Atrial septal defect: An opening in the wall (septum) that separates the left and right top chambers (atria) of the heart. A hole can vary in size and may close on its own or may require surgery. Atrioventricular septal defect (endocardial cushion defect): A defect in both the lower portion of the atrial septum and the upper portion of the ventricular septum. Together, these defects make a large opening (canal) in the middle part of the heart. Aniridia (an-i-rid-e-a): An eye anomaly where the colored part of the eye (called the iris) is partly or totally missing. It usually affects both eyes. Other parts of the eye can also be formed incorrectly. The effects on children’s ability to see can range from mild problems to blindness. To learn more about aniridia, go to the U.S. National Library of Medicine website. Anophthalmia/microphthalmia (an-oph-thal-mia/mi-croph-thal-mia): Birth anomalies of the eyes. In anophthalmia, a baby is born without one or both eyes.

  • Hydranencephaly
    Kathmandu University Medical Journal (2010), Vol. 8, No. 1, Issue 29, 83-86 Case Note Hydranencephaly Pant S1, Kaur G2, JK De3 1Medical Offi cer, 2Associate Professor, 3Professor and Head, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Manipal College of Medical Sciences Abstract Hydranencephaly is a rare congenital condition where the greater portions of the cerebral hemispheres and the corpus striatum are replaced by cerebrospinal fl uid and glial tissue. The meninges and the skull are well formed, which is consistent with earlier normal embryogenesis of the telencephalon. Bilateral occlusion of the internal carotid arteries in utero is a potential mechanism. Clinical features include intact brainstem refl exes without evidence of higher cortical activity. The infant’s head size and the spontaneous refl exes such as sucking, swallowing, crying, and moving the arms and legs may all seem normal at birth. However, after a few weeks the infant usually becomes irritable and has increased muscle tone and after a few months of life, seizures and hydrocephalus (excessive accumulation of cerebrospinal fl uid in the brain) may develop. Other symptoms may include visual impairment, lack of growth, deafness, blindness, spastic quadriparesis (paralysis), and intellectual defi cits. Since the early behaviour appears to be relatively normal, the diagnosis may be delayed for months sometimes. There is no defi nitive treatment for hydranencephaly. The outlook for children with hydranencephaly is generally poor, and many children with this disorder die before their fi rst birthday.

Hydranencephaly is an isolated and with a severe prognosis abnormality, affecting the cerebral mantle. In this condition, the cerebral hemispheres are completely or almost completely absent and are replaced by a membranous sac filled with cerebrospinal fluid. Midbrain is usually not involved.

  • Increasing Number of Unusual Brain Abnormalities Seen in Rural West Virginia
    Increasing number of unusual brain abnormalities seen in rural West Virginia Abstract The incidence rate of schizencephaly is 1.5 in 100,000 live births and the rate of holoprosencephaly is 1 in 16,000 live births. Both malformations are rare, but our institution has seen a dramatic increase in both malformations in recent years with no known cause. Schizencephaly is the most severe cortical malformation and holoprosencephaly is the most common defect in the prosencephalon during development. However, it is still not very common to see a fetus with this defect live to delivery. Our institution, a regional hospital in central Appalachia, has seen four cases of schizencephaly and three cases of holoprosencephaly within two years. No two neonates seem to share a common factor. All had different co-morbidities and presentations, all mothers were of different ages and showed few risk factors if any for these deformities. This paper is a report of the cases found of these rare birth defects seen at our institution in recent years. Keywords Neonate, Holoprosencephaly, Schizencephaly Introduction Our institution, a regional hospital in central Appalachia, has seen an unusual increase in brain abnormalities over the past ten years with no obvious cause, with a cluster of severe congenital brain malformations in the last thirty months. These malformations include schizencephaly and holoprosencephaly. Schizencephaly is the most severe form of a cortical malformation.1 Schizencephaly is estimated to affect 1.5 out of 100,000 live births. The clefting of the cerebral mantle most commonly occurs in the frontal lobes but can occur in the parietal lobe as well.2 Schizencephaly symptoms include developmental delays, speech and language difficulties, brain-spinal cord communication problems, microcephaly, hydrocephalus, seizures, complete or partial paralysis, and abnormal muscle tone.

Abstract The Oralfacialdigital Syndromes (OFD) results from the pleiotropic effect of a morphogenetic impairment affecting almost invariably the mouth, face and digits. In view of the different modes of inheritance and the different prognoses of the most common OFDs; OFD I, and II, it is important to establish a correct diagnosis in these patients. A case of type II OFD syndrome is being reported and the distinguishing clinico-radiological features with type I are compared.
