Microcephaly

Abnormally small head usually associated with developmental delay. Microcephaly may happen if the brain is damaged before birth by congenital rubella (German measles), other viral infections, maternal alcohol use in preganancy or other problems. It may also result from brain damage during birth, injury, or disease in early infancy. There is also a rare inherited form of microcephaly.
