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 کاملBilateral intraorbital meningoencephaloceles and associated midline craniofacial anomalies: MR and three-dimensional CT imaging.
Developmental midline abnormalities involving facial, optic, cranial, and cerebral structures are complex anomalies that require a multidisciplinary therapeutic approach. Radiologic evaluation requires identification of cerebral anatomy, orbital structures, facial bones, and the anterior fossa as well as the relationships of these structures to one another. We report an unusual combination of l...
متن کاملHoloprosencephaly with multiple anomalies of the craniofacial bones-an autopsy report.
Holoprosencephaly (HPE), a disorder which results from a failure of cleavage or the incomplete differentiation of the forebrain structures at various levels or to various degrees, is related to hereditary factors, chromosomal anomalies, cytogenetic abnormalities, and environmental teratogenic factors. We are reporting a case of a multiparous woman who was G3,P3,L2, who delivered a full term foe...
متن کاملNovel FGF8 mutations associated with recessive holoprosencephaly, craniofacial defects, and hypothalamo-pituitary dysfunction.
CONTEXT Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 8 is important for GnRH neuronal development with human mutations resulting in Kallmann syndrome. Murine data suggest a role for Fgf8 in hypothalamo-pituitary development; however, its role in the etiology of wider hypothalamo-pituitary dysfunction in humans is unknown. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to screen for FGF8 mutations in patients wi...

with CATCH 22 syndrome to psychotic disorders. CATCH 22 syndrome is a developmental malformation caused by hemizygous deletion of 22qll chromosome which usually presents with cardiac malformations, thymic aplasia, cleft palate, hypocalcaemia and chromosome 22 deletion (Wilson et al, 1993). Recently, a high prevalence of both schizophrenia and bipolar spectrum disorders have been found in these ...
