    Summary

    This study showcases computed tomographic (CT) findings in five holoprosencephaly cases. It illustrates various classifications, including alobar, semilobar, and lobar types, highlighting the spectrum of this congenital brain malformation.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Radiology
    • Developmental Biology

    Background:

    • Holoprosencephaly is a severe congenital brain malformation resulting from incomplete forebrain cleavage.
    • Accurate classification is crucial for understanding prognosis and management.
    • Computed tomography (CT) is a key imaging modality for diagnosing and classifying holoprosencephaly.

    Observation:

    • This study presents five distinct cases of holoprosencephaly.
    • The cases encompass alobar, semilobar, and lobar (Types A and B) classifications.
    • One semilobar case presented with a complicating subdural effusion.

    Findings:

    • Computed tomographic (CT) imaging effectively demonstrates the spectrum of holoprosencephaly.
    • CT findings correlate with established classifications of holoprosencephaly severity.
    • The imaging spectrum includes typical features of alobar, semilobar, and lobar holoprosencephaly.

    Implications:

    • CT imaging is vital for diagnosing and classifying holoprosencephaly.
    • Understanding the CT spectrum aids in clinical assessment and patient counseling.
    • Further research can refine CT-based classification and prognostic indicators.
