2015, Hernando R. Alvis-Miranda et al., “Iniencephaly: Case Report”, in Journal of Pediatric Neurosciences, volume 10, →DOI:Some authors consider that NTD as encephaloceles, meningoceles and iniencephaly most likely not arise directly from a failure in neural tube formation, but more probably from a postneurulation disorder; which is a consistent fact with findings from other causes, for example, encephalocele when these are part of Meckel syndrome. Iniencephaly is not considered to be an open defect because usually the sac containing CSF contains neural tissue and is covered by an intact dermis. Lewis classifies iniencephaly in “iniencephalus apertus” when associated with encephalocele, and “anencephalus clausus”, which is not associated encephalocele.
