1. Anencephaly

3. Chiari Malformation
Chiari Malformation
There are four different types of Chiari malformation, ranging from no symptoms
(Type 1) to an incomplete or underdeveloped cerebellum (Type 4), which is
incompatible with life. This disorder is diagnosed based on the protrusion of the
cerebellum, which defines the severity. The cerebellum and brainstem are pushed
downward, causing pressure on the cerebellum to block the flow of spinal fluid.
Clinical manifestations include dizziness, muscle weakness, numbness, vision
problems, headaches, and problems with balance and coordination.
Occurs when a section of the spinal cord and the nerves are exposed and visible to
the outside of the body.
1. Spina Bifida Cystica
2. Meningocele
3. Spina Bifida Occulta
1. Spina Bifida Cystica
Spina bifida cystica, also called a myelomeningocele, is a disorder that causes
partial or complete paralysis below the spinal opening due to a visible opening
that exposes the spinal cord and nerves outside the body. The myelomeningocele
can be removed surgically, but this does not correct any deficit. This defect should
remain covered and protected with a sterile, moistened, and warm dressing until
surgery. The infant should be placed prone and the diaper should remain open.
Caused by electrical impulses moving through the entire brain involving both

3. Generalized
3. Generalized
Generalized seizures occur from electrical impulses moving through the entire
brain, whereas simple focal and complex focal seizures are caused by abnormal
electrical impulses moving through just a small part of the brain; focal seizures can
spread to other regions.
Sudden flexor or extensor movements of the neck, trunk, and extremities
occurring up to 100 times per day.
1. Status Epilepticus
2. Febrile seizures
3. Infantile spasms
3. Infantile spasms
Infantile spasms are a type of myoclonic epilepsy that occurs in infants from 3 to
12 months, causing sudden flexor or extensor movements of the neck, trunk, and
extremities up to 100 times per day. Typically, the spasms will occur upon
awakening or going to sleep without a known cause. Status epilepticus occurs
when the brain is in a state of constant seizure lasting 2 minutes or longer. This
form of seizure is a medical emergency and more common in young children and
in elderly individuals. Febrile seizures occur as a result of a rise in body
temperature in children 3 months to 5 years old; they last less than 5 minutes and
typically occur without further brain injury
Child appears to be staring into space or daydreaming.
1. Febrile seizure
2. Focal seizure
3. Absence seizure
