Eight cases are presented of arhinencephaly and its associated malformations, which included 2 examples of holoprosencephaly and 3 of agenesis of the corpus callosum. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Increase in interorbital distance is known as hypertelorism [Figure - 5]. Hypotelorism is frequently associated with HP malformation sequence [17], [23], [24], [25]. [ijri.org]
Treatment
[…] disorders across the lifespan (pediatric, adult, and geriatric populations) Includes interventions and methods of treatment for the outcomes patients may experience [books.google.ro]
Treatment depends upon the problem. In many cases, treatment only helps with symptoms. It may include antiseizure medicines, shunts to drain fluid from the brain, and physical therapy. There are head malformations that do not involve the brain. [icdlist.com]
Clofibrate treatment was ineffective. However, after the patient was treated by a low osmotic residue diet, an increased water-intake and hydrochlorothiazide, natremia became normal and growth resumed. [unboundmedicine.com]
Treatment and prognosis Treatment is primarily aimed at restoring normal pubertal development and in some case normal fertility. The former can be achieved by administration of exogenous sex steroids, appropriate to the gender of the patient. [radiopaedia.org]
Prognosis

Treatment and prognosis Treatment is primarily aimed at restoring normal pubertal development and in some case normal fertility. The former can be achieved by administration of exogenous sex steroids, appropriate to the gender of the patient. [radiopaedia.org]
The prognosis of affected patients depends on the severity of HP. Alobar and semilobar HP have a very poor prognosis, virtually all infants with the more severe form die in the first postpartum year [14]. [ijri.org]
Treatment for holoprosencefalia does not exist and the prognosis for the individuals that suffer it is poor. Most of that they survive they do not show significant signs of development. [wikipedia.qwika.com]
Prognosis is dependent upon the degree of fusion and malformation of the brain, as well as other health complications that may be present. The more severe forms of encephalopathy are usually fatal. [en.wikipedia.org]
Etiology
The etiology of HP is heterogeneous. Most cases occur sporadically and have a normal karyotype. [ijri.org]

Further epidemiologic studies will be necessary to assess the risk factors for holo-prosencephaly and arhinencephaly. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Pathophysiology
The origins of EEG rhythms, the physiologic and pathophysiologic mechanisms, have never been fully defined. Nevertheless in the quest for certainty, clinicians search for EEG patterns which may be diagnostic of a brain lesion or disease. [jamanetwork.com]
