Holoprosencephaly (HPE) : case report and review of the literature

INTRODUCTION: Holoprosencephaly (HPE) is a complex brain malformation resulting from a medial cleavage defect of the prosencephalon into right and left hemispheres, occurring during early embryonic development. CASE PRESENTATION: We report an alobar holoprosencephaly diagnosed on imaging (obstetrica...

description INTRODUCTION: Holoprosencephaly (HPE) is a complex brain malformation resulting from a medial cleavage defect of the prosencephalon into right and left hemispheres, occurring during early embryonic development. CASE PRESENTATION: We report an alobar holoprosencephaly diagnosed on imaging (obstetrical ultrasound) and revealed by a polymalformative syndrome in an 8-month-old infant. DISCUSSION: Holoprosencephaly affects the forebrain and face, causing neurological manifestations and facial anomalies of varying severity. HPE is a cerebral midline anomaly. CONCLUSION: Its fetal prognosis is extremely guarded, particularly for the alobar form.
