Presentation
Neonate with abnormal neurology.
From the case:
Type I lissencephaly
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/11056/annotated_viewer_json?lang=us"}
Axial slice of non-contrast CT head shows grossly underformed gyri, a smooth cortical surface, band heterotopia and dilated lateral ventricles, more prominent posteriorly (temporal horns) and right more than left. The findings are compatible with lissencephaly type I.
From the case:
Type I lissencephaly
{"current_user":null,"step_through_annotations":true,"access":{"can_edit":false,"can_download":true,"can_toggle_annotations":true,"can_feature":false,"can_pin":false},"extraPropsURL":"/studies/11057/annotated_viewer_json?lang=us"}
Head ultrasound (HUS) demonstrates the same findings seen on the CT head.
Case Discussion
Typical appearance of lissencephaly type I, with no normal gyration visible, lending a figure 8 appearance to the cortex.
