Dandy–Walker malformation (DWM), also known as Dandy–Walker syndrome (DWS), is a rare congenital brain malformation in which the part joining the two hemispheres of the cerebellum (the cerebellar vermis) does not fully form, and the fourth ventricle and space behind the cerebellum (the posterior fossa) are enlarged with cerebrospinal fluid.
Craniosynostosis-Dandy-Walker malformation-hydrocephalus syndrome (HCDPH1, also known as Sagittal craniosynostosis, Dandy-Walker malformation and hydrocephalus, Dandy-Walker malformation with sagittal craniosynostosis and hydrocephalus, Braddock-Jones-Superneau syndrome, or simply Hydrocephalus, autosomal dominant) is an autosomal dominant syndrome characterized by sagittal craniosynostosis ...

Developmental disorders including neural-tube defects, arachnoid cysts, Dandy–Walker malformations, and Arnold–Chiari malformations can cause primary hydrocephalus. Dandy-walker malformations and Arnold-Chiari malformations lead to structural abnormalities in the brain, which disrupts the flow of CSF and causes hydrocephalus.

Dandy-Walker malformation is also occasionally seen in Ellis–Van Creveld syndrome, which is characterized by heart defects and malformed alveolar ridge. [5] Many disorders include the Dandy–Walker phenotype and thus it is not pathognomonic for 3C syndrome. [10] CHARGE syndrome can also be misdiagnosed. This is because both CHARGE syndrome ...
Walker–Warburg syndrome (WWS), also called Warburg syndrome, Chemke syndrome, HARD syndrome (Hydrocephalus, Agyria and Retinal Dysplasia), Pagon syndrome, cerebroocular dysgenesis (COD) or cerebroocular dysplasia-muscular dystrophy syndrome (COD-MD), [1] is a rare form of autosomal recessive congenital muscular dystrophy.

An eponymous disease is a disease, disorder, condition, or syndrome named after a person, usually the physician or other health care professional who first identified the disease; less commonly, a patient who had the disease; rarely, a literary character who exhibited signs of the disease or an actor or subject of an allusion, as characteristics associated with them were suggestive of symptoms ...
