Drugs and Biologics

Drugs and Important Biological Agents (IBA) related to Colpocephaly:

1.	Transaminases (Aminotransferases)IBA 11/01/1993 - "In one female infant, although the clinical findings were similar to those in Zellweger syndrome, some findings, such as elevated transaminase levels, liver fibrosis, the absence of renal cortical cysts and colpocephaly, were negative or milder. "
2.	Fumaric aciduriaIBA 08/01/2010 - "This work presents the first case of fumaric aciduria described in Brazil, which presented with some interesting clinical and biochemical findings such as colpocephaly, hepatic alterations, and marked metabolic acidosis since birth. "

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Telescopes 01/01/2000 - "Using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), we studied the organisation of the visual cortex in a patient with callosal agenesis and colpocephaly, whose visual acuity and binocular visual fields were normal. "
2.	Ventriculostomy 03/21/2023 - "Also, seizure disorders, spasticity, and varying degrees of neurocognitive deficits can be found in 12%.Four distinct patterns of hydrocephalus have been described: aqueductal stenosis with lateral and third ventricle dilatation, periforaminal calcifications leading to foramen of Monro stenosis with associated asymmetrical ventricle dilatation, a mix of aqueductal and foramen of Monro stenosis, and overt hydrocephalus without clear evidence of obstruction with predominant dilatation of occipital horns (colpocephaly).While all patients diagnosed with congenital toxoplasmosis should undergo pharmacological treatment, those presenting with hydrocephalus have traditionally been managed with CSF shunting; however, there are reports of at least 50% success when selected cases are treated with endoscopic third ventriculostomy.
