Megalencephaly-polymicrogyria-polydactyly-hydrocephalus Syndrome 2; Mpph2

Description

MPPH2 is an overgrowth syndrome comprising megalencephaly, hydrocephalus, and polymicrogyria; polydactyly may also be seen. There is considerable phenotypic similarity between this disorder and the megalencephaly-capillary malformation syndrome (MCAP ) (summary by Gripp et al., 2009).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of MPPH, see {603387}.
