RESUMEN
La anencefalia es una de las anomalías del tubo neural más comunes. Estas anomalías son defectos congénitos que afectan el tejido que crece en el cerebro y la médula espinal, el objetivo de la presente investigación es describir un caso de anencefalia que es un defecto congénito poco frecuente en el neonato en la fusión de varios sitios de cierre del tubo neural. Defecto en la fusión de varios sitios de cierre del tubo neural ocurre cuando el extremo encefálico o cabeza del tubo neural no logra cerrarse, generalmente entre el 23º y el 26º día del embarazo, dando como resultado una malformación cerebral congénita caracterizada por la ausencia parcial o total del cerebro, cráneo, y cuero cabelludo; su frecuencia varía entre 0.5 y 2 por cada 1 000 nacimientos. Se presenta un caso de un primer gemelar que nace con ausencia de cráneo, con puntuación de apgar bajo que a pesar de las medidas de sostén fallece a las 20 horas de edad(AU)
ABSTRACT
The anencephaly is one of the most common anomalies of the neural tube. These anomalies are congenital defects that affect the tissues that grow in the brain and the spinal cord, the objective of this investigation is to describe a case of anencephaly that is an infrequent congenital defect in the newborns in the fusion of several closing places of the neural tube. The defect in the fusion of several closing places of the neural tube occurs when the encephalic extreme or head of the neural tube does not close, generally between the 23º and the 26º day of the pregnancy, causing a congenital cerebral malformation characterized by the partial or total absence of the brain, skull, and scalp; its frequency varies between 0.5 and 2 per 1000 births. It is presented a case of a first twin who comes to the world with absence of skull, with a low apgar, and in spite of the ways to keep him alive, he died after 20 hours(EU)
