    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Colpocephaly, an enlarged brain ventricle finding, can stem from various causes affecting brain development. This study presents new cases, including one with a chromosomal anomaly, supporting diverse origins for this condition.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Developmental Biology
    • Neuroscience

    Background:

    • Colpocephaly is characterized by disproportionately enlarged occipital horns of the lateral ventricles.
    • It is hypothesized to result from localized outpouching of the ventricular cavity due to impaired brain thickening.
