| Abstract |
|
Neuronal migrational disorders of the brain represent abnormalities in the formation of the
neocortex caused by faulty migration of the subependimal neuroblasts. Lissencephaly is a rare
congenital anomaly representing an arrest of brain development before the third or fourth month of
gestaional age.
The most common clinical findings were seizure, delayed development, failure to thrive and
hydrocephalus. The authors experienced a case of lissencephaly with West syndrome. Diagnosis was
made by the characteristic CT, MRI and EEG findings. |
