Heterotopia: MP-RAGE axial MRIs. Note the presence of the malformed gray matter that extends from the left lateral ventricle to the surface of the left frontal lobe. This is most likely heterotopic ...

A notch lower in the hierarchy of severity are the somatic mutations found in persons with tuberous sclerosis, the double-cortex syndrome, periventricular nodular heterotopia, and bilateral ...

They are called 'periventricular nodular heterotopia,' PNH. In addition, in the surface layer, a larger number of smaller folds (gyri) are seen than normal (indicated by asterisks).

Researchers have discovered information about a gene that sets primates -- great apes and humans -- apart from other mammals, through the study of a rare developmental brain disorder.

Gabby was born with a rare brain disease called bilateral periventricular nodular heterotopia. It affects only one in a million, and those affected must be cared for their entire lives.

Heterotopia: MP-RAGE coronal MRIs. Note the presence of the malformed gray matter that extends from the left lateral ventricle to the surface of the left frontal lobe. Also note that the adjacent ...
