Causes of floppy head syndrome in babies?

Congenital causes:

- Myelomeningocele: neural tube defect in which part of the spinal cord and meninges protrude through an opening in the back

- Hydrocephalus: excess accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the ventricles of the brain

- Arnold-Chiari malformation: structural abnormality in which the lower part of the brain (the cerebellum) extends into the spinal canal

- Dandy-Walker malformation: brain malformation characterized by the absence or underdevelopment of the cerebellar vermis (the central part of the cerebellum) and enlargement of the fourth ventricle (fluid-filled space in the brain)

Postnatal Causes:

- Meningitis and Encephalitis
