Entry term(s) arrinencefalia
holoprosencefalia alobar
holoprosencefalia lobar
Scope note: Malformaciones de la línea media anterior en el cerebro, cráneo y cara que resultan de un defecto de la segmentación y separación del prosencéfalo embrionario. La prosencefalia alobular es la forma más grave y se caracteriza por anoftalmia, ciclopia, DISCAPACIDAD INTELECTUAL grave, LABIO LEPORINO, FISURA PALATINA, CONVULSIONES y microcefalia. La holoprosencefalia semilobar se caracteriza por hipertelorismo, microftalmia, coloboma, malformaciones nasales, y grados variables de DISCAPACIDAD INTELECTUAL. La holoprosencefalia lobular se asocia con malformaciones faciales leves (o ausencias) y habilidades intelectuales que oscilan entre la DISCAPACIDAD INTELECTUAL leve a normal. La holoprosencefalia se asocia con ANOMALÍAS CROMOSÓMICAS.

Scope note: Anterior midline brain, cranial, and facial malformations resulting from the failure of the embryonic prosencephalon to undergo segmentation and cleavage. Alobar prosencephaly is the most severe form and features anophthalmia; cyclopia; severe INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY; CLEFT LIP; CLEFT PALATE; SEIZURES; and microcephaly. Semilobar holoprosencepaly is characterized by hypotelorism, microphthalmia, coloboma, nasal malformations, and variable degrees of INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY. Lobar holoprosencephaly is associated with mild (or absent) facial malformations and intellectual abilities that range from mild INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY to normal. Holoprosencephaly is associated with CHROMOSOME ABNORMALITIES.
