Cranial asymmetry is the first clinical sign usually present at birth; in the most severe cases,... [connection.ebscohost.com]
Patients present with developmental delay and, more commonly, seizures. [radiologykey.com]
In the main part, the developmental disorders of the human brain and the spinal cord are presented in a regional, more or less segmental way, starting with neurulation and neural tube defects, and ending with developmental disorders of the cerebral cortex [books.google.de]
Holoprosencephaly is also present in some syndromes such as Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome and Meckel-Gruber syndrome (autosomal recessive). [perinatal.nhs.uk]
Workup
In the workup of epilepsy or developmental delay, cortical malformations must be ruled out in every pediatric patient ( 3 ). [radiologykey.com]
Treatment
During the treatment period plasma follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) were measured daily for 6 days and again at the end of 32 days. [annals.org]

Surgical treatment aimed at widening the bony inlet via a sublabial approach, is performed only when this fails. [11] This is in contrast to the treatment of posterior choanal atresia, which is mainly surgical [dilatation and stenting, transpalatal repair [ijri.org]
Delivery in a tertiary center is recommended for early abdominal wall defect repair and treatment of the hypoglycemia. [sinoemedicalassociation.org]
Nurses should be knowledgeable about these treatment modalities and educate parents as needed. [medigoo.com]
Prognosis
Top of the Page POSTNATAL The prognosis for holoprosencephaly depends on the severity of the lesion. There is a high attrition rate during pregnancy and many cases abort spontaneously. [perinatal.nhs.uk]
Prognosis HDH usually has a poor prognosis and is lethal in about 50% of the cases. Mental retardation, epilepsy and precocious puberty are quite common complications (50-60%) in the surviving patients. [atlasgeneticsoncology.org]
Among thesecerebral abnormalities, vermis agenesis was the abnormality withthe worse (neurocognitive) prognosis, which could have led toFigure 2 Arhinencephaly prenatal magnetic resonance imaging at 32weeks of gestation: coronal T2-weighted sequences. [docslide.com.br]
Regardless, kudos to his amazing family who never settled for acceptance in the only prognosis associated with hydranencephaly, and literally fought to save David's life against the medical "professionals" we entrust with the lives of our loved ones. [braydenalexanderfoundation.blogspot.com]
When parents understand the child's condition and potential prognosis, they are better able to realistically plan for the future. [medigoo.com]

The wide variation in cerebral and facial phenotypes and the recognized etiologic heterogeneity of holoprosencephaly (HPE) contribute to the observed inter-study heterogeneity. [scribd.com]
In conclusion, a myogenic component of the etiology of velopharyngeal insufficiency in children with 22 q 11 .2 deletion syndrome could not be confirmed. [worldwidescience.org]

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

Pathophysiology
With the advent of ultrasound, prenatal diagnosis is possible during the second trimester or late first trimester Pathophysiology: It has been suggested that a failure of mesodermal induction causes MKS. [sinoemedicalassociation.org]
The so- called holoprosencephaly-diencephalic hamartoblastoma association is apparently heterogeneous, and some patients diagnosed with this condition may share a common pathophysiologic pathway with the pathways in HLS (30). [redorbit.com]
