Abstract:
Schizencephaly is a developmental disorder of the human brain caused by a defect of neuronal migration. We observed a 7 month old african boy suffering from nystagmus and hemiparesis. The neuroimaging reveals a large cleft in cortical and subcortical structures and typical changes of polymicrogyria. In the differential-diagnosis encephaloclastic porencephaly should be considered.

Sutures of the Skull
Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
