uhrad.com - Neuroradiology Imaging Teaching Files Case Thirteen - Bilateral Closed-lip Schizencephaly Click on Images for Enlarged View Clinical History: Four-year-old female with new onset of febrile seizures associated with loss of vision. Radiologic Findings: On the CT of the brain nodular irregularity of both lateral ventricular walls suggestive of heterotopia. T1 weighted axial images and gradient echo volume sagittal images were obtained. There is a gray matter lined cleft extending from the level of the parieto-occipital junction to the occipital horns of the lateral ventricles. There is marked gray matter heterotopia lining the occipital horns, atria, and the bodies of the lateral ventricles bilaterally. The gyral pattern of the occipital and pareietal lobes are abnormal with a thickened nodular pattern suggesting areas of polymicrogyria. Diagnosis: Bilateral closed-lip schizencephaly Discussion: Schizencephaly, also known as agenetic porencephaly, refers to gray matter lined clefts that extend through the entire hemisphere from the ependymal lining of the lateral ventricles to the pial covering of the cortex. The gray matter lining is dysplastic. The clefts can be unilateral or bilateral and are commonly located near the pre- or post-central gyri. Two types of schizencephaly are identified for prognostic purposes. In closed-lip schizencephaly, the cleft walls oppose each other causing obliteration of the CSF space within the cleft. In open-lip schizencephaly, CSF fills the cleft from the lateral ventricles to the subarachnoid space that surrounds the hemispheres. Patients typically present with seizures, hemiparesis, and some degree of developmental delay.

Research SCHIZENCEPHALY is a rare developmental disorder characterized by abnormal slits, or clefts, in the cerebral hemispheres. Schizencephaly is a form of porencephaly. Individuals with clefts in both hemispheres, or bilateral clefts, are often developmentally delayed and have delayed speech and language skills and corticospinal dysfunction. Individuals with smaller, unilateral clefts (clefts in one hemisphere) may be weak on one side of the body and may have average or near-average intelligence. Patients with schizencephaly may also have varying degrees of microcephaly, mental retardation, hemiparesis (weakness or paralysis affecting one side of the body), or quadriparesis (weakness or paralysis affecting all four extremities), and may have reduced muscle tone (hypotonia). Most patients have seizures and some may have hydrocephalus. In schizencephaly, the neurons border the edge of the cleft implying a very early disruption in development. There is now a genetic origin for one type of schizencephaly. Causes of this type may include environmental exposures during pregnancy such as medication taken by the mother, exposure to toxins, or a vascular insult. Often there are associated heterotopias (isolated islands of neurons) which indicate a failure of migration of the neurons to their final position in the brain.

Dubey, Department of Pediatrics, Base Hospital, Delhi Cantonment 110 010, India.

Amongst the cortical malformations, schizencephaly is more severe, yet restricted disorder(1,2). The lesion may be suspected by the appearance of focal ventricular dilatation on ultrasonogram and by visualization of gray matter lined cleft on CT Scan(3,4). However, the most sensitive modality for demonstration of schizencephaly is MRI(3,5). Of the two types of the schizencephaly described, Type I which consists of fused cleft without hydro-cephalus may not be detected by sonography, but is readily identified by CT/MRI(6,7). We report a case of Type I Schizencephaly for its rarity and to highlight sensitivity of MRI in demonstrating the lesion. Case Report An 11-year-old male child elder of the two siblings, was born at term to non-consan-guineous parents. Antenatal, intranatal and perinatal periods were uneventful. He pre-sented with global delay of motor milestones, frequent falls and weakness of the left half of the body since early infancy. There was no history of seizures. Scholastic performance of the child was within normal limits.
