Magnetic resonance imaging investigation of the brain in this syndrome has not been reported previously. This communication describes the brain malformations in an infant with the syndrome, which covered delayed myelination, thickened and infolded cortices (cortical dysplasia), dysplastic corpus callosum, and agenesis of the inferior vermis.
