[MR scanning of cerebrum in the investigation of delayed development in children. Syntelencephaly--is it really so rare?]

Abstract

A 14-month-old boy presented with a mild global developmental delay, plagiocephaly, and a mild mid-face dysmorphology, including hypertelorism. At 24 months of age, early signs of a spastic diplegic cerebral palsy were noted. MRI of the brain showed middle interhemispheric fusion: syntelencephaly.
