Summaries for Craniorachischisis

About this section
NIH Rare Diseases : 52 Craniorachischisis is the most severe type of neural tube defect in which both the brain and spinal cord remain open; both anencephaly and spina bifida (from the cervical region to the lumbar or sacral region of the spine) are present. Fetuses with craniorachischisis often miscarry during pregnancy or die shortly after birth. The cause is thought to be multifactorial , which means that a combination of genetic and non-genetic factors play a role.

MalaCards based summary : Craniorachischisis is related to neural tube defects and anencephaly. An important gene associated with Craniorachischisis is DACT1 (Dishevelled Binding Antagonist Of Beta Catenin 1), and among its related pathways/superpathways is Signaling by Wnt. Affiliated tissues include Neural Tube, spinal cord and brain, and related phenotypes are anencephaly and myelomeningocele
