Cases involving microcephaly have been steadily increasing in Brazil.

This includes microcephaly and other mainly neurological defects.

When this gene is not available in the 1q21.1 area, it leads to microcephaly.

If those genes don’t work, babies are born with severely small brains, called microcephaly.

In case of intrauterine exposure, increases in microcephaly and mental retardation were noticed in offspring of survivors.

The foetal malformations associated with exposure to isotretinoin include central nervous system abnormalities (hydrocephalus, cerebellar malformation/ abnormalities, microcephaly), facial dysmorphia, cleft palate, external ear abnormalities (absence of external ear, small or absent external auditory canals), eye abnormalities (microphthalmia), cardiovascular abnormalities (conotruncal malformations such as tetralogy of Fallot, transposition of great vessels, septal defects), thymus gland abnormality and parathyroid gland abnormalities.

Microcephaly and other malformations of foetuses that can be connected to a Zika infection have been recorded already in 20 countries.

However, now the CDC and other health experts have discovered a direct correlation between Zika virus and the development of a neurological disorder, known as microcephaly, in newborns and unborn babies that causes babies to be born with small heads and underdeveloped brains.

According to an article in the New York Times, this condition affects thousands of children in Brazil. However, the Times also points out microcephaly is not new, and has plagued countries for decades (there are roughly 25,000 babies born with it every year in the U.S., not necessarily tied to any virus).
