Preferred Label : Hydrocephalus with associated malformations;
Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;
Description : Among the offspring of unrelated healthy parents, Game et al. (1989) observed 4 fetuses
with growth retardation, hydrocephalus with patent aqueduct of Sylvius, micrognathia,
hypoplastic multilobed lungs, intestinal malrotation, omphalocele, shortness of lower
limbs, bowed tibias, foot deformities, and other defects. Occurrence in 4 sibs (3
female), including 1 pair of monochorionic diamniotic twins, suggested autosomal recessive
inheritance. The diagnosis was made prenatally in all 4 cases, hydrocephalus being
the most striking abnormality on ultrasound examination and present as early as the
fourteenth week of gestation. *FIELD* RF 1. Game, K.; Friedman, J. M.; Paradice, B.;
