Links to MONDO diseases: No links.

Mendelian trait/disorder: unknown

Considered a defect: yes

Cross-species summary: Enlargement of the cranium caused by accumulation of fluid.

Inheritance: Despite several claims of single-locus inheritance, the data ar not convincing. The disorder is, however, definitely familial.

Genetic engineering: Unknown
Have human generated variants been created, e.g. through genetic engineering and gene editing
