It results in incomplete development of the fetus’s brain, scalp, and skull. According to the Cleveland Clinic, the issue manifests between weeks three and four of pregnancy.
It occurs when the neural tube, a fetal conduit that typically closes to generate the brain and spinal cord, fails to seal properly.
