MRI of the brain demonstrates an extensive area of developmental malformation which involves the posterosuperior margins of the left Sylvan fissure. This is characterized by abnormal cortical thickening and a nodular surface and grey-white matter interface. No cleft or grey matter heterotopia noted. Septum pellucidum is present.
Case Discussion
This case demonstrates typical appearance of polymicrogyria which in this case is unilateral.
