Abstract
Lissencephaly is a rare congenital condition with distinctive brain changes. Most
of these changes were demonstrated on computed tomography, and include lack of cortical
sulci and gyri; calcification in the region of paraphysis; wide, shallow sylvian fissures;
colpocephaly; poor development of white matter; and persistent cavum septum pellucidum
and cavum vergae.
