Popis: | A detailed neuropathological study of five immature brains with type II lissencephaly is reported. The cases described include two pairs of siblings. One infant survived for 2 months after birth, the others died at 18, 20, 20 and 32 weeks of gestation. This series of cases demonstrates the sequence in which the malformation develops from mid-gestation to post-natal life and shows that type II lissencephaly is not an intracortical malformation but is the result of massive glial and neuronal ectopia in the leptomeninges. This results from a failure of arrest of neuronal migration due to defects in the integrity of the pial/glial barrier. |
