	Anencephaly is a condition referred to as "without a brain" because parts of the brain and skull are not properly developed. The nervous tissue undergoes degeneration so the brain remains as a spongy vascular mass{{#pmid:25386414\|PMID25386414}} It is now called Meroanencephaly because some functioning neural tissue is present.
