Schizencephaly, unilateral

Bañuelos Acosta, MD

Puerto Vallarta, Mexico

This 3rd trimester fetus has a unilateral schizencephaly (see also Schizencephaly, type II and Case 11)

Note the drooping choroid plexus in the cerebral cleft, which distinguishes this lesion from an arachnoid cyst for instance.
