Septopreoptic holoprosencephaly: a mild subtype associated with midline craniofacial anomalies.
SUMMARY HPE is a congenital brain malformation characterized by failure of the prosencephalon to divide into 2 hemispheres. We have identified 7 patients who have a mild subtype of HPE in which the midline fusion was restricted to the septal region or preoptic region of the telencephalon. This subtype, which we call septopreoptic HPE, falls in the spectrum of lobar HPE, but lacks significant fr...
متن کاملDental and Craniofacial Anomalies Associated with Axenfeld-Rieger Syndrome with PITX2 Mutation
Axenfeld-Rieger syndrome (ARS) (OMIM Nr.: 180500) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder (1 : 200000) with genetic and morphologic variability. Glaucoma is associated in 50% of the patients. Craniofacial and dental anomalies are frequently reported with ARS. The present study was designed as a multidisciplinary analysis of orthodontic, ophthalmologic, and genotypical features. A three-generation...
متن کاملChapter 16 : Craniofacial anomalies
The term craniofacial anomalies literally encompasses all congenital deformities of the cranium and face. More specifically, however, the term has come to imply congenital deformities of the head that interfere with physical and mental well-being (Marsh and Vannier, 1985). There are practically no epidemiological studies of craniofacial malformations as such. Myrianthopoulos (1982) reviewed dat...
متن کاملRadial, renal and craniofacial anomalies: Baller-Gerold syndrome
The Baller-Gerold syndrome is a rare syndrome with very few cases published in literature. Craniosynostosis and radial aplasia are striking features, easy to diagnose. However, there are many differential diagnoses. Often, the question raised is whether the Baller-Gerald syndrome is a distinct entity. We report a patient with findings of craniosynostosis and radial aplasia consistent with the d...
متن کاملGenitourinary anomalies associated with Klippel-Feil syndrome.
Of thirty-nine patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome, twenty-five (64 per cent) had significant genitourinary-tract anomalies demonstrated by intravenous urogram and physical examination. The incidence of these anomalies in Feil's three types of the syndrome was essentially the same, unilateral renal agenesis being the most common. A routine intravenous urogram is indicated in patients with this ...
