Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Dandy Walker variant:

1.	MetrizamideFDA Link 01/01/1980 - "Only the additional studies after the application of Metrizamide intrathecally could demonstrate the direct communication of the spinal CSF system with the fourth ventricle, determining the diagnosis: Dandy-Walker-Variant. "
2.	Retinaldehyde (Retinal)IBA 04/01/2016 - "Retinal vascular nonperfusion in siblings with Dandy-Walker variant." 12/01/2013 - "We have observed a male and a female, sibs of non-consanguineous parents, affected by severe myopia with characteristic retinal defects and Dandy-Walker variant. " 04/01/2016 - "We hypothesize that children with Dandy-Walker variant may present with refractive errors such as pathologic myopia and with diverse retinal findings, including retinal ischemia. " 04/01/2016 - "We report the case of a 2-month-old girl with Dandy-Walker variant who presented with strabismus, pathologic myopia measuring -16.00 D in each eye, diffuse chorioretinal atrophy and pigment mottling in the macula of both eyes, and areas of retinal capillary nonperfusion in both eyes. "
3.	Protein Phosphatase 2 (Protein Phosphatase 2A)IBA 01/01/2018 - "Here, we identified an activating cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) p.D269V mutation, located at the predicted protein-protein interaction groove, as a novel genetic cause of Dandy-Walker variant (DWV). "
4.	Antipsychotic Agents (Antipsychotics)IBA 01/01/2013 - "Increased sensitivity to atypical antipsychotics in a patient with Dandy-Walker variant with schizophrenia."
5.	Proteins (Proteins, Gene)FDA Link 01/01/2018 - "Here, we identified an activating cancerous inhibitor of protein phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) p.D269V mutation, located at the predicted protein-protein interaction groove, as a novel genetic cause of Dandy-Walker variant (DWV). "

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Colonic Pouches (S Pouch) 06/01/1991 - "Second, although IV ventricular cysts were categorized as Dandy-Walker malformation, Dandy-Walker variant, and persistent Blake's pouch in this study, the distinctions of neuroimaging findings between these three types are uncertain. " 06/01/2012 - "Of these, two cases presented with Blake's pouch cyst, two with Dandy-Walker variant (DWV; hypoplasia of the inferior part of the vermis), one with Dandy-Walker malformation (DWM) and one with a complex of DWM, dysgenesis of the corpus callosum and brain stem abnormality. " 09/01/2006 - "Twelve of the patients had communicating arachnoid cyst, seven had non-communicating arachnoid cyst, ten had mega cisterna magna, six had Dandy-Walker malformation, two had Dandy-Walker variant, and three had Blake's pouch cyst. " 01/01/1993 - "Twenty-six cases of developmental retrocerebellar cyst (RCC) formation are studied with respect to determining the usefulness and anatomic relevance of separate terms currently in use, including Dandy-Walker complex, Dandy-Walker malformation, Dandy-Walker variant, mega-cisterna magna (MCM), and Blake's pouch cyst. "
2.	Therapeutics 01/01/2013 - "A case of Dandy-Walker variant disorder associated with multiple neuropsychiatric comorbidities managed with behavioral therapy."
3.	Sutures (Suture) 01/10/1997 - "He has frontal bossing, ridged metopic suture, bilateral ptosis, right squint, depressed nasal bridge, small nose, anteverted nostrils, lobulated tongue, polydactyly of both hands, microphallus, hypoplastic scrotum, microtestes, dysgenesis of corpus callosum, and a Dandy-Walker variant.
