Poland Anomaly and Atretic Cephalocele in the Same Child: Coincidence or Association?
Poland Anomaly is a rare congenital disorder typically characterized by hypoplasia or agenesis of pectoral muscle with or without ipsilateral limb hypoplasia. The association of central nervous system malformation with Poland Anomaly has been rarely reported and includes craniofacial dysplasia, microcephaly, and Dandy-Walker malformation. However, no anomalies in neural tube closure have been described in association with Poland Anomaly. Atretic cephalocele is another rare diagnosis, which is an involuted congenital herniation of intracranial contents through defects in the skull. Herein, we present the case of a child affected with Poland Anomaly in whom an atretic cephalocele has been diagnosed at the age of 2 months.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Medical Genetics - Part A (AJMG) gives you continuous coverage of all biological and medical aspects of genetic disorders and birth defects, as well as in-depth documentation of phenotype analysis within the current context of genotype/phenotype correlations. In addition to Part A , AJMG also publishes two other parts:
Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics , covering experimental and clinical investigations of the genetic mechanisms underlying neurologic and psychiatric disorders.
Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics , guest-edited collections of thematic reviews of topical interest to the readership of AJMG .
