Holoprosencephaly Holoprosencephaly (HPE) and polycystic kidney disease (PKD) are genetically heterogeneous anomalies which can make up part of various syndromes or chro-mosomal anomalies. Holoprosencephaly is a spectrum of congenital defects of forebrain development characterized by incomplete separation of the cerebral hemispheres. In vivo diagnosis can be established with prenatal brain imaging and disease severity correlates with extent of abnormally developed brain tissue. However, the diagnosis of lobar holoprosencephaly is difficult, as a distinct interhemispheric fissure is present. Ultrasound Obstet Gynecol 1999; 13: 360-362 Cohen MM Jr. Perspectives on holoprosencephaly. Modern ultrasound imaging devices have increasingly allowed sophisticated prenatal diagnoses of fetal disorders. Due to the rapid lethality prognosis, early and precise pre-natal diagnosis would be of great value. Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome - Fetal phenotypes with special reference to the syndrome-specific internal malformation pattern. Embryopathologic and ultrasound findings are reported in five cases of alobar holoprosencephaly that were diagnosed prenatally, two cases as early as 23 menstrual weeks. As with all types of holoprosencephaly, it is a rare congenital brain malformation in which there is failure of complete separation of the two hemispheres and failure of transverse cleavage into diencephalon and telencephalon. The remaining 19% showed other severe cephalic and extracephalic anomalies. We would like to present a rare case of alobar holoprosencephaly (HPE) in a fetus diagnosed by routine sonography in the second trimester.

In this article, we report a rare variant case of alobar holoprosencephaly with cystic hygroma and hydrops fetalis. Holoprosencephaly (HPE) is a complex brain malformation resulting from incomplete cleavage of the prosencephalon, occurring between the 18th and the 28th day of gestation and affecting both the forebrain and the face.

Fetal Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome can be detected accurately and reliably by measuring amniotic fluid dehydrocholesterols. The diagnosis was established based on high levels of 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) and 8-dehydrocholesterol (8DHC) in amniotic fluid.

Herein, we report a new observation of trisomy 4p in a fetus with a semi-lobar holoprosencephaly (HPE), dysmorphic features and multiple malformations. Division of Neurology, Children's National Health System, Washington, DC. Molecular analysis of DHCR7 gene identified a homozygous mutation in intron 8, c.964-1G>C, providing molecular confirmation for this diagnosis. This case report describes extensive J Med Genet. Am J Obstet Gynecol. Identification of the cause of holoprosencephaly aids in establishing the prognosis and is essential to ascertain the mode of inheritance for adequate genetic counseling. Ultrasound is a good modality for prenatal diagnosis of holoprosencephaly that is frequently associated with midline face deformity such as cleft lip and palate. However, CT scanning exposes the patient to ionizing radiation and is therefore relatively contraindicated in the prenatal diagnosis.

Holoprosencephaly is a spectrum of congenital defects of forebrain development characterized by incomplete separation of the cerebral hemispheres. In 81% of the cases, the diagnosis of HPE was confirmed postnatally.
