- Suggestibility
But emerging experience suggests that this is an oversimplification that may contribute to inaccurate information about both outcome and genetic risks. [rarediseases.org]
Prenatal diagnosis possible: Hydrocephalus usually becomes apparent after 18–20 weeks’ gestation; adducted thumbs in the first trimester of pregnancy are highly suggestive of X-linked hydrocephalus ( 95 ). [ispn.guide]
Conclusions Our data validate CCDC88C as causing autosomal recessive, primary non-syndromic congenital hydrocephalus, suggesting this gene may be an important cause of congenital hydrocephalus, and underscore the important role of the C-terminal PDZ domain-binding [jmg.bmj.com]
Hydronephrosis (suggestive of obstructive uropathy). Hyperechoic fetal kidneys (suggestive of polycystic disease). [patient.info]

- Poor Coordination
Patients show progressive incoordination of gait and often poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movements, due to degeneration of the cerebellum with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. [genecards.org]
Signs & Symptoms The symptoms of Dandy Walker syndrome typically include developmental delay, low tone (hypotonia) or later high tone (spasticity), poor coordination and balance (ataxia), and sometimes enlarged head circumference and increased pressure [rarediseases.org]

Prognosis
Prognosis Prognosis for DWM varies anywhere from excellent to fatal. [encyclopedia.com]
Prognosis of the disorder depends on early diagnosis and treatment. The disorder can be diagnosed by clinical neurological evaluations and by imaging techniques such as ultrasonography, CT, MRI, or pressure-monitoring techniques. [cags.org.ae]

Etiology
The etiologies of congenital hydrocephalus include infections, vascular abnormalities, mechanical obstruction and chromosomal abnormalities. [omicsonline.org]
Conclusions Here, we show that the use of prenatal SNP array testing can be helpful in elucidating the etiology of congenital hydrocephalus and in guiding appropriate perinatal care. [thieme-connect.com]

Prevention
Currently, there are no specific methods or guidelines to prevent VACTERL with Hydrocephalus, since it is a genetic condition Genetic testing of the expecting parents (and related family members) and prenatal diagnosis (molecular testing of the fetus [dovemed.com]
Today, with prompt diagnosis and shunting, permanent neurological damage can be prevented in most cases. [neuropathology-web.org]
Prevention A study of antenatal ultrasound screening in 12 European countries has shown that a great many abnormalities of the renal tract may be detected in the second trimester, allowing termination of pregnancy to be considered. [ 13 ] There is considerable [patient.info]
However, some infants with definite hydrocephalus exhibit no such signs, as hydrocephalus may have developed slowly and the splaying of the sutures may have prevented the intracranial pressure from increasing considerably. [clinicalgate.com]
