Acrania-exencephaly-anencephaly sequence

open access: yesJournal of Dr. NTR University of Health Sciences, 2021
Acrania–exencephaly–anencephaly sequence is rare forms of neural tube defects. The progression is from a relatively normal-appearing exposed brain due to an absent cranium called as acrania, to an amorphous brain mass term as exencephaly.

Genetics of human neural tube defects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are common, severe congenital malformations whose causation involves multiple genes and environmental factors. Although more than 200 genes are known to cause NTDs in mice, there has been rather limited progress in delineating ...

Craniospinal rachischisis with multiple anomalies in an anencephalic fetus: A rare case report

open access: yesJournal of the Scientific Society, 2014
Neural tube defects (NTDs) are the most common malformations accounting for 0.5-1.3 cases/1000 live births with multifactorial etiology. Anencephaly and craniospinal rachischisis are open NTDs.

Rare association of cyclopia with craniospinal rachischisis

open access: yesIndian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2019
Cyclopia is a severe form of holoprosencephaly which results in children being born with just one eye, absence of nose and presence of a proboscis above the median eye. Incidence of cyclopia is around 1.05 in 1, 00,000 births, including stillbirths.

Whole-Exome Sequencing Identifies Damaging de novo Variants in Anencephalic Cases

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
BackgroundAnencephaly is a lethal neural tube defect (NTD). Although variants in several genes have been implicated in the development of anencephaly, a more complete picture of variants in the genome, especially de novo variants (DNVs), remains ...
