BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Primary microcephaly is an incompletely understood
malformation that is often associated with developmental brain anomalies, yet whether the …

Microcephaly may be present at birth or develop postnatally. Classification according to the
genetic cause cannot always predict the severity of the clinical course. The aim of this …

Primary microcephaly is a heterogeneous group of cerebral malformations either with a
relatively well-preserved or an abnormal gyral pattern. We describe the MRI findings and …

Microcephaly is usually defined as head circumferences of two standard deviations (SD) or
more below the mean [Opitz and Holt, 1990], so that congenital microcephaly would include …

Aim The aim of this study was to assess the diagnostic approach to microcephaly in
childhood and to identify the prevalence of the various underlying causes/disease entities …

We report the neonatal courses, early postnatal development, and neuroimaging findings of
17 patients with marked microcephaly and simplified cerebral gyral patterns, a condition that …

Microcephaly is defined as a head circumference more than two standard deviations below
the mean for gender and age. Congenital microcephaly is present at birth, whereas …

Microcephaly results from inadequate brain growth during development. It may develop in
utero, and therefore be present at birth, or may develop later as a result of perinatal events …

Objectives: To develop subjective (visual) and objective (morphometric) rating scales for the
classification of MRI in infants who had microcephaly with a simplified gyral pattern (MSGP) …

Fifty-five patients with microcephaly (head circumference<-2SD) were identified. The 55
patients were divided into two groups, consisting of group 1 (34 cases) in which genetic …
