Two types of schizencephaly are recognized: a "closed-lip" schizencephaly in which the cleft walls are contiguous and an"open-lip" schizencephaly in which the walls are separated by wide subarachnoid spaces. The grey matter lining the cleft is usually polymicrogyric (see polymicrogyria ). The clefts can be unilateral or bilateral, symmetrical or asymmetrical and can appear anywhere in the brain. These lesions are believed to be due to in utero vascular injuries and their preferential location in the perisylvian areas follows the frontoparietal distribution of the middle cerebral artery. The clinical condition of patients relates to the amount and location of involved brain: patients with a narrow, unilateral cleft usually present with seizures and mild focal neurological deficits and they are otherwise developmentally normal; patients with bilateral clefts often have severe developmental delay with early intractable epilepsy and severe motor dysfunction. On imaging studies the key feature in the diagnosis of any type of schizencephaly is the presence of a ventricular dimple at the ependymal surface of the cleft. This can be the only CT feature in cases of closed or minimally open lip schizencephaly. On MR images the thickness of the transhemispheric cleft and the polymicrogyric aspect of the grey matter lining the cleft are better discernible (

It may be related to a vascular event. The resulting abnormality is a seam of grey matter extending from the pial surface of the brain down towards the ependyma of the lateral ventricle. This results in a grey matter lined cleft which can be described as open lipped, where there is a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) track between the two sides, or closed lipped, where no CSF is identified. There is usually an associated abnormal contour of the lateral ventricle where the cleft meets the ventricular surface. In a large proportion of patients (70-80%) there will also be an absence of the septum pellucidum ( Fig.1 ). The abnormality is often found in the parietal lobe and can be bilateral ( Fig.2 ). The ventricular system may also be slightly dilated and the grey matter lining the cleft may be thickened. Children often present with seizures or developmental delay, but can have remarkably few symptoms. Also, see schizencephaly NW The Encyclopaedia of Medical Imaging Volume VII Schizencephaly, Fig. 1

Volume 8 [Spring 2001] Home Contents Subscriptions Archives A Genetic Basis for Schizencephaly Lhx2 may play a role in Schizencephaly, septo-optic dysplasia, and Joubert Syndrome by Allen Ho is a LIM homeodomain gene expressed by proliferating cells in the developing cerebral cortex. Based on its expression pattern and similarities to knockout mice, was investigated as a candidate gene for the human disorder schizencephaly, a rare cortical malformation characterized by a full-thickness cleft within the cerebral hemispheres. Septo-optic dysplasia, a disorder often associated with schizencephaly, and Joubert Syndrome, a cerebellar disorder, were also investigated. The human genomic sequence was defined and PCR protocols were developed to amplify DNA samples from both blood and paraffin-embedded brain tissue. The human gene was sequenced in nine patients with one or more of these malformations, with no definite mutations found in the known functional domains sequenced so far. A heterozygous sequence alteration is reported involving a hydrophobic to hydrophilic amino acid change in a hydrophobic polyalanine stretch with unknown functional significance. Also, two other reported heterozygous sequence alterations are identified involving base changes not predicted to result in a change to the protein coding sequence.

Radiological Findings: Axial T1-weighted MR image showed a cleft at the posterior aspect of right frontal lobe connecting the extra-axial fluid space with the right lateral ventricle ( Fig. 1A ). The cleft was lined by gray matter, which had a small gap in between opposing surfaces indicating an open lip schizencephaly ( Fig. 1B ). Right cerebral hemisphere was smaller than left hemisphere. Septum pellucidum was absent giving a boxlike configuration of ventricles. The right lateral ventricle was mildly dilated ( Fig. 2A

In either instance the cleft is lined by heterotopic gray matter. The clefts can be unilateral or bilateral, symmetric or asymmetric.[2] Bilateral clefts have a worse prognosis for development, with seizures present in the majority. Patients may present with hemiparesis (more likely in unilateral forms) or tetraparesis (more likely in bilateral forms). Mental retardation and seizures are other common presentations, being more severe in bilateral clefts.[3] CT scans of closed lip schizencephaly may show only a slight outpouching, or "nipple" at the ependymal surface of the cleft. The full thickness cleft or the pial-ependymal seam may be difficult to detect on CT scans. Open lip schizencephaly has a larger, more apparent gray matter lined CSF cleft. The majority of patients have bilateral clefts, most of them roughly symmetrical in location and more likely open (type II) than closed (type I) the presence of heterotopic gray matter is considered pathognomic for schizencephaly, distinguishing it from an acquired condition.

Cephalic is a term that means " head " or "head end of the body." Congenital means the disorder is present at, and usually before, birth Cephalic disorders are not necessarily caused by a single factor, but may be influenced by hereditary or genetic conditions, nutritional deficiencies, or by environmental exposures during pregnancy , such as medication taken by the mother, maternal infection, or exposure to radiation (such disorders are more common in areas of the former Soviet Union affected by nuclear waste disposal problems, such as the area around the Mayak plant in Chelyabinsk Russia .)
