A novel KIF11 mutation in a Turkish patient with microcephaly, lymphedema, and chorioretinal dysplasia from a consanguineous family. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Microcephaly–lymphedema–chorioretinal dysplasia (MLCRD) syndrome is a rare syndrome that was first described in 1992. Characteristic craniofacial features include severe microcephaly, upslanting palpebral fissures, prominent ears, a broad nose, and a ...

Investigating microcephaly [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Disease in Childhood, 2013
1. Microcephaly is a clinical finding, not a 'disease', and is a crude but trusted assessment of intracranial brain volume. 2. Developmental processes reducing in utero neuron generation present at birth with 'Primary microcephaly'. 3. 'Secondary microcephaly' develops after birth and predominantly reflects dendritic or white matter diseases.

Whole-exome sequencing identifies homozygous mutation in TTI2 in a child with primary microcephaly: a case report

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2020
Background Primary microcephaly is defined as reduced occipital-frontal circumference noticeable before 36 weeks of gestation. Large amount of insults might lead to microcephaly including infections, hypoxia and genetic mutations.
