Neuroglial heterotopia of the scalp.

Pathologica, 2017
Heterotopic glial nodules of the scalp are non hereditary congenital malformations composed of mature brain tissue isolated from the cranial cavity. The majority of these lesions are found in the nasal region and occur rarely on the scalp. They are frequently diagnosed in newborn infants. However, they may rarely be found in adults. The pathogenesis of

Intrapulmonary neuroglial heterotopia.

Archives of pathology & laboratory medicine, 1992
Nonteratomatous intrapulmonary neuroglial heterotopia not associated with birth trauma or frank vascular embolization has been described rarely. This article briefly reviews the literature, and presents two additional cases of intrapulmonary neuroglial heterotopia. We found 14 cases in the literature.
