Popis:	Schizencephaly, has been defined as an almost symmetrical bilateral cleft along the cerebral hemisphere. Clinical findings in patients with schizencephaly depends on the type of clefts (on of off type) and the amount of malformed parenchyma. Incidence of schizencephaly is unclear, while a population-based study performed in the United States reported its incidence as 1.54:100000. These types of cortical developmental malformations had variable clinical signs depending on the function of the affected area which range widely from mental-motor retardation and epilepsy to focal neurological disorders. We also presented a very rare case with bilateral cleft palate aged 4 years who was referred with recurrent afebrile convulsive episodes and diagnosed as schizencephaly, subependimal heterotopia and temporal lobe epilepsy by cranial MRI
