Fowler syndrome

Fowler syndrome is a very rare condition with limited detailed information available. It is known by several names, including encephaloclastic proliferative vasculopathy, cerebral proliferative glomeruloid vasculopathy, hydrocephaly/hydranencephaly due to cerebral vasculopathy, and PVHH. These synonyms suggest that the condition involves abnormalities in the blood vessels of the brain, which can be associated with severe brain malformations such as hydrocephaly or hydranencephaly. Research has identified the FLVCR2 gene in association with this syndrome, though the exact role this gene plays in the development of the disorder is not fully described. Overall, current knowledge is limited and more studies are needed to fully understand the range of effects and underlying causes of Fowler syndrome.

Information about symptoms is currently limited for this condition.

The available information indicates a connection with the FLVCR2 gene. However, details on how changes in this gene lead to the development of Fowler syndrome and what additional risk factors may exist are not well described.

Information about treatment is currently limited for this condition.

Information about prognosis is currently limited for this condition.
