title: Computed tomography evolution of multicystic encephalomalacia.
abstract: A case of multicystic encephalomalacia is presented, demonstrating postischemic maldevelopment in the cerebrum on serial computed tomography scans. The developmental features of multicystic encephalomalacia are discussed, as well as migration abnormalities such as encephaloclastic porencephaly and agenetic porencephaly. Representative computed tomography scans of porencephaly are included.
