Usually babies with this malformation do not survive past birth. However, there have been cases of survival. As of 2004, there were only two reported living cases. Of these two, one was severely cognitively impaired and physically disabled. The status of the other was unreported. If the fetus progresses to full term there is the risk that it will have head trauma from the pressure applied to the head while being delivered. A few other cases of<unk>  have been reported that did not progress to birth. In addition to the lack of the skull cap, there were brain malformations in each case and all the pregnancies were terminated either electively or the fetuses were spontaneously aborted.
