HOLOPROSENCEPHALY 2; HPE2

Description

A rare disorder characterized by the partial separation of the cerebral hemispheres. It is associated with mutations in the SIX3 gene.

Most common symptoms of HOLOPROSENCEPHALY 2; HPE2

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Microcephaly

SCHIZENCEPHALY

Description

Brunelli et al. (1996) described schizencephaly as an extremely rare congenital disorder characterized by a full-thickness cleft within the cerebral hemispheres. The clefts are lined with gray matter and most commonly involve the parasylvian regions (Wolpert and Barnes, 1992). Large portions of the cerebral hemispheres may be absent and replaced by cerebrospinal fluid. Two types of schizencephaly have been described, depending on the size of the area involved and the separation of the cleft lips (Wolpert and Barnes, 1992). Type I schizencephaly consists of a fused cleft. This fused pial-ependymal seam forms a furrow in the developing brain, and is lined by polymicrogyric gray matter. In type II schizencephaly, there is a large defect, a holohemispheric cleft in the cerebral cortex filled with fluid and lined by polymicrogyric gray matter. The clinical manifestations depend on the severity of the lesion. Patients with type I are often almost normal; they may have seizures and spasticity. In type II abnormalities, there is usually mental retardation, seizures, hypotonia, spasticity, inability to walk or speak, and blindness.Schizencephaly may be part of the larger phenotypic spectrum of holoprosencephaly (HPE; see {236100}).

Most common symptoms of SCHIZENCEPHALY

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Global developmental delay
  • Generalized hypotonia
  • Microcephaly

Description

Solitary median maxillary central incisor syndrome (SMMCI) is a complex disorder consisting of multiple, mainly midline, defects of development resulting from unknown factor(s) operating in utero from about the 35th-38th day after conception.

Most common symptoms of SOLITARY MEDIAN MAXILLARY CENTRAL INCISOR SYNDROME

  • Intellectual disability
  • Seizures
  • Short stature
  • Microcephaly
  • Scoliosis

SEMILOBAR HOLOPROSENCEPHALY

Description

Semilobar holoprosencephaly is one of the classical forms of holoprosencephaly (HPE; see this term) in which the left and right frontal and parietal lobes are fused and the interhemispheric fissure is only present posteriorly.

Alternate names

SEPTOPREOPTIC HOLOPROSENCEPHALY Is also known as septopreoptic hpe

Description

Septopreoptic holoprosencephaly (HPE) is a very rare subtype of lobar HPE (see this term) characterized by midline fusion limited to the septal and/or preoptic regions of the telencephalon without a significant frontal neocortical fusion.

Alternate names

MIDLINE INTERHEMISPHERIC VARIANT OF HOLOPROSENCEPHALY Is also known as mihf, mihv, middle interhemispheric variant of holoprosencephaly, mih, mih type hpe, syntelencephaly, middle interhemispheric fusion variant

Description

Midline interhemispheric variant of holoprosencephaly (MIH) or syntelencephaly is a form of holoprosencephaly (HPE; see this term) characterized by non-separation of the posterior frontal and parietal lobes, normally-formed callosal genu and splenium, absence of the callosal body, normally-separated hypothalamus and lentiform nucleus, and frequent heterotopic gray matter.
