There are many reports of hemimegalencephaly on MRI. However, there have
been a few reports of sonographic diagnosis of the disease in a neonate. A one-dayold
female infant was diagnosed as hemimegalencephaly accompanying band heterotopia
on cranial sonography, which showed 4 a four-layered patterns of hypoechoic
cortex, thick band-like hyperechoic subcortical white matter, inner hypoechoic
heterotopia, and hyperechoic unmyelinated periventricular white matter. The sonographic
patterns corresponded well with MRI findings on the second day of life. To
the best of my knowledge, the author is the first to reports on the US findings and MR
correlation of hemimegalencephaly. |
