A, Stigmata of the Chiari II malformation. Sagittal T1-weighted MR image shows elongated caudally displaced effaced fourth ventricle and caudal herniation of the cerebellum.
B, Manifestations of holoprosencephaly. Axial T1-weighted MR image shows absent interhemispheric falx and partial fusion of frontal cortex and white matter.
C, Follow-up image obtained at 13 months of age. Sagittal T1-weighted MR image shows poor myelination and extensive polymicrogyria along the mesial surfaces of the cerebral hemispheres. Arrow indicates the large massa intermedia.
