1- Posterior periventricular heterotopia usually is not an isolated impaired neuronal migration, but it is a distinct complex entity and it is part of a continuous spectrum of cortical malformations, disordered infra-Sylvian development and posterior fossa abnormalities.
2- High-field MRI with specific sequences is essential for a correct diagnosis of these entities.
- Embryological brain development
- High field MRI
- Review of imaging findings
- Clinical-radiological correlation with sample cases
