Congenital hydrocephalus: new Mendelian mutations and evidence for oligogenic inheritance

Abstract Background Congenital hydrocephalus is characterized by ventriculomegaly, defined as a dilatation of cerebral ventricles, and thought to be due to impaired cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) homeostasis. Primary congenital hydrocephalus is a subset of cases with prenatal onset and absence of another...
