Protrusion of the brain through a defect in the skull is called an encephalocele. It is a type of neural tube defect that occurs when the neural tube (which forms the baby's brain and spinal cord) does not close properly during embryonic development. Encephaloceles can lead to neurological issues and require surgical intervention.
The congenital herniation of the meninges through a defect in the skull or spinal column is known as a meningocoele when it occurs in the spinal column and as a meningoencephalocele when it involves the skull. These conditions arise from neural tube defects during fetal development, leading to protrusion of the meninges and, in some cases, brain tissue. They can result in various neurological impairments depending on the severity and location of the defect. Early diagnosis and surgical intervention are often necessary for managing these conditions.
Anencephaly is a lethal birth defect characterized by the absence of all or part of the skull and scalp and malformation of the brain.
Anencephaly is caused by a failure of the neural tube to close properly during fetal development, leading to incomplete formation of the brain and skull. This results in the baby being born without parts of the brain and skull.
No. The Pituitary Gland is located in the skull. The Vomer is a protrusion off the skull.
Anencephalus is another name for anencephaly, a lethal birth defect in which most of the brain and parts of the skull are missing from a newborn baby.
Vomer
The brain
through your brain because when you think of something you brain sends you a signal through you brain stem located in the back of your skull. it tells you what you should say.
No, scalp lesions affect the skin and hair of the scalp. What happens on the scalp does not permeate the brain. The brain is under the skull bones. The lesions cannot get through the skull to the brain.
The skull protects the brain.
The brain is on the inside the skull.
