  • central diabetes insipidus central hypothyroidism renal tubular acidosis and Dandy Walker Syndrome new associations
    Annals of Medical and Health Sciences Research, 2015
    Co-Authors: Maram M Alafif, S S Aljaid, Abdulmoein E Alagha
    Abstract:

    Dandy-Walker Syndrome (DWS) is a rare brain malformation involving the cerebellum, and the fluid filled spaces around it, usually detected during the antenatal period or the early infancy. Clinically, it is characterized by mental retardation, developmental delay as well as cerebellar ataxia. It has been frequently associated with other conditions such as congenital heart diseases, primary hypothyroidism, and other disorders of the central nervous, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and orthopedic systems. In this report, we describe a 3-month-old Saudi boy with the rare association of DWS with central diabetes insipidus, congenital central hypothyroidism, and type-2 renal tubular acidosis.

  • occipital meningoceles in patients with the Dandy Walker Syndrome
    Neurosurgery, 1991
    Co-Authors: Ajay K Bindal, Bruce B Storrs, David G Mclone
    Abstract:

    Occipital cephaloceles in the Dandy-Walker Syndrome are not rare. To date, 28 cases have been reported. We report on 8 cases of associated occipital meningocele, totalling 16% of all patients with the Dandy-Walker Syndrome in our series. In all patients, communication existed between the posterior fossa cyst and the occipital meningocele. In 2 patients, the occipital meningocele disappeared after cerebrospinal fluid shunting and never required surgical repair. It appears that the cranial defect had ossified and resulted in self-closure. Poor intellectual development in persons with the Dandy-Walker Syndrome is associated with the presence of other central nervous system and systemic abnormalities and not with occipital meningoceles alone.
