12738006: Brain structure (body structure)

SNOMED CT Concept\Body structure (body structure)\Anatomical or acquired body structure (body structure)\Anatomical structure\...

\Anatomical structure which has as its parts a heterogeneous collection of organs, organ parts, cells, cell parts or body part subdivisions that are adjacent to, or continuous with one another; does not constitute a cell part, cell, tissue, organ, or body part subdivision.\Structure of anatomical compartment (body structure)\Intracranial structure (body structure)\Brain structure

\An anatomical structure that consists of the maximal set of organ parts so connected to one another that together they constitute a self-contained unit of macroscopic anatomy, distinct both morphologically and functionally from other such units. Together with other organs, an organ constitutes an organ system or a body part. An organ is divisible into organ parts but not organs (examples: femur, biceps, liver, heart, aorta, sciatic nerve, ovary).\Brain and spinal cord structure (body structure)\Brain structure

A rare multiple congenital anomalies/dysmorphic syndrome characterised by developmental delay and intellectual disability, epileptic encephalopathy, horseshoe or hypoplastic kidney, failure to thrive, hypertrichosis of the limbs and respiratory problems (including apnoea, multicompartmental respiratory disease, intermittent hyperventilation) along with mesomelic dysplasia (Nievergelt/Savarirayan type). Dysmorphic facial features may include microcephaly, synophrys, large nose with prominent nasal tip and low hanging columella, protruding ears, smooth/short philtrum, wide mouth with square upper lip, widely spaced teeth and micrognathia.
