the disorder consists of a spectrum of defects or malformations of the brain and face. Most cases are associated with severe malformations of the brain which are incompatible with life and often cause spontaneous intrauterine death. At the other end of the spectrum are individuals with facial defects -- which may affect the eyes, nose, and upper lip -- and normal or near-normal brain development. Seizures and mental retardation may occur. The most severe of the facial anomalies is cyclopia, an abnormality characterized by a single eye, located in the area normally occupied by the root of the nose, and a missing nose or a nose in the form of a proboscis (a tubular appendage), located above the eye. Ethmocephaly is the least common facial anomaly. It consists of a proboscis separating narrow-set eyes with an absent nose and microphthalmia (abnormal smallness of one or both eyes). Cebocephaly, another facial anomaly, is characterized by a small, flattened nose with a single nostril situated below incomplete or underdeveloped closely set eyes. The least severe in the spectrum of facial anomalies is the median cleft lip also called premaxillary agenesis. (Source: excerpt from NINDS Holoprosencephaly Information Page: NINDS)
