Aqueductal Stenosis
Heterotopias
Migration of the neuroblasts from the periventricular
region to the pia usually happens during 7th to 16th week
gestation.
Damage to the radial glial fibers which direct migration is
thought to disrupt this process.
Heterotopia is disorganized brain tissue, usually gray
matter, in the wrong location.
Two types: Nodular and Band
Nodular: periventricular or subcortical, Signal same as
gray matter, no enhancement
Band: close to cortex, sx: developmental delay, seizures,
double cortex sign--thin interface of white matter
between band and cortex
