This baby has multiple congenital anomaly. We should do chromosomal analysis to rule out chromosomal aberrations and also for future genetic counselling. Regarding this baby, it seems the child has signficant neurological involvement and future proper development of brain is to be assessed as the child grows but going by the investigations it seems likely that brain may not be able to grow to its full potential and child is likely to live with a significant sequelae. Chances of this baby leading a normal and independent life would depend on the functional development of the brain. But usually babies who are born with these kind of congenital brain defects have very high chances of having abnormal neur--ological development and generally would have some degree of developmental slowing, may have seizures and other neurological problems.
