[Schizencephaly].
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.
