In hemimegalencephaly, MR imaging often reveals mid-sagittal band-like structuresbetween the lateral ventricles. We describe the clinical presentation, morphologic abnormalities,conventional MR imaging, diffusion tensor MR and fiber tract (FT) reconstruction in a 14-year-oldboy with unilateral hemimegalencephaly. We retrospectively examined MR images to determinewhether these structures are aberrant mid-sagittal fibers.

Abstract

In hemimegalencephaly, MR imaging often reveals mid-sagittal band-like structuresbetween the lateral ventricles. We describe the clinical presentation, morphologic abnormalities,conventional MR imaging, diffusion tensor MR and fiber tract (FT) reconstruction in a 14-year-oldboy with unilateral hemimegalencephaly. We retrospectively examined MR images to determinewhether these structures are aberrant mid-sagittal fibers.
