Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Changes of the major forebrain commissures in lissencephaly have not been systematically studied. We investigated the developmental differences of the commissures in patients with varying types of lissencephaly to determine whether specific commissural features may help in distinguishing lissencephaly phenotypes.
