anencephalia
Anencephaly is a severe birth defect where parts of the brain and skull do not fully develop while the fetus is in the womb. This condition often results in the absence of a major part of the brain, skull, and scalp in the newborn. Infants with anencephaly are usually stillborn or die shortly after birth due to their inability to sustain life.
