Endoscopic Third Ventriculostomy (ETV) treatment is a new method for hydrocephaly treatment. In this method, in addition to the fact that the patient does not need an implant, the risk of infection is low and in the long term the result is...
متن کاملMicrodeletion 9q22.3 syndrome includes metopic craniosynostosis, hydrocephalus, macrosomia, and developmental delay.
Basal cell nevus syndrome (BCNS), also known as Gorlin syndrome (OMIM #109400) is a well-described rare autosomal dominant condition due to haploinsufficiency of PTCH1. With the availability of comparative genomic hybridization arrays, increasing numbers of individuals with microdeletions involving this locus are being identified. We present 10 previously unreported individuals with 9q22.3 dele...
