  • Title: Holoprosencephaly in neonates.
    Author: Ram SP, Noor AR, Mahbar Z, Krishna TN.
    Journal: Int J Pediatr Otorhinolaryngol; 1994 Mar; 29(1):65-71. PubMed ID: 8169049.
    Abstract:
    A single nostril associated with alobar holoprosencephaly is a rare congenital lesion. This paper reports two female term neonates with holoprosencephaly. The first neonate asphyxiated at birth had a single nostril, hypotelorism, posterior cleft palate, inferonasal coloboma of the iris and disc and persistent tunica vasculosa lentis. The other neonate had cleft lip and palate and recurrent convulsions. Both neonates had gross motor and developmental delay. Cranial sonography and CT scan showed features consistent with alobar holoprosencephaly. Karyotyping for the first neonate and her family members was normal. Both of them were treated conservatively and supervised.
