Coexisting Congenital Mesoblastic Nephroma and Lissencephaly: Unique Case Report with Pathological Analysis and Its Clinical Significance [PDF]
Background: Congenital mesoblastic nephroma represents 3–10% of all pediatric renal tumors. With the advancement of ultrasound diagnostics and magnetic resonance imaging, the diagnosis of this renal neoplasm is increasingly being established prenatally ...

Cobblestone lissencephaly (Type II), clinical, and neuroimaging: A case report and literature review [PDF]
Cobblestone lissencephaly (C-LIS) (TYPE II) is a rare and severe neuronal migration disorder characterized by a smooth brain surface with overmigrated neurons and abnormal formation of cerebral convolutions or gyri during fetal development, resulting in ...

Cytomegalovirus infection with lissencephaly [PDF]
Lissencephaly is a malformation of the brain in which the brain surface is smooth, rather than convoluted. Among the various causes of lissencephaly, infection by a virus during pregnancy plays an important role.

MRI-based spectral analysis of fetal brain gyrification in typical development and in lissencephaly and polymicrogyria [PDF]
Cortical gyrification is a key marker of fetal brain development and is typically assessed qualitatively on ultrasound or MRI. While previous quantitative approaches have characterized gestational trajectories in typically developing (TD) fetuses, only a

Fetal Presentation of Walker-Warburg Syndrome With a Novel POMT1 Splice-Altering Variant: Antenatal Imaging, Postmortem MRI, Autopsy, and Molecular Correlation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Walker–Warburg syndrome (WWS) is a fatal autosomal recessive disorder characterized by brain and eye malformations, and prenatal diagnosis relies heavily on neuroimaging findings to guide targeted genetic screening. Here, we describe a distinctive second‐trimester fetal imaging pattern observed in two siblings.

Gene-specific long-term course, neurodevelopmental outcome and quality of life in patients with LIS1/PAFAH1B1-, DCX-, DYNC1H1-, TUBA1A- and TUBG1-related lissencephaly [PDF]
Background Classic lissencephaly is a malformation of cortical development that includes agyria and pachygyria. The major clinical symptoms are developmental impairment, muscular hypotonia, and drug-resistant epilepsy.

Lissencephaly with subcortical band heterotopia in an East African child: A case report [PDF]
Lissencephaly is a rare neuronal migration defect that results in a smooth cerebral surface, mental retardation, and seizures. It is diagnosed primarily by correlating clinical manifestations with MRI findings. We present a case of a 3-year-old girl with

Expanding the genotypic spectrum of PCSK1 deficiency: A novel mutation in severe neonatal diarrhea. [PDF]
Abstract Among congenital diarrhea and enteropathies (CODEs), proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 1 (PCSK1) deficiency is a rare monogenic disorder, associated with severe neonatal diarrhea and polyendocrinopathies. We report an 18‐day‐old male neonate, born to consanguineous parents, presenting with persistent watery diarrhea, metabolic ...

Lissencephaly with Congenital Hypothyroidism: A Case Report
Lissencephaly is a malformation of cortical development associated with deficient neuronal migration and abnormal formation of cerebral convolutions or gyri. The lissencephaly spectrum consists of agyria, pachygyria, and subcortical band heterotopia. At
