Scope note: El aspecto granular de la CORTEZA CEREBRAL en el que existe engrosamiento cortical y reducción y anormalidades en la sustancia blanca a consecuencia de la emigración de neuronas heterotópicas a la leptomeninge a través de defectos de la MEMBRANA BASAL externa. También hay agrandamiento de los ventrículos, hipoplasia del TRONCO ENCEFÁLICO y ausencia del CUERPO CALLOSO. Estas alteraciones se presentan como un síndrome, sin otras malformaciones congénitas (complejo en empedrado) o en otros síndromes asociados a DISTROFIA MUSCULAR, con frecuencia con afectación ocular, como el síndrome de Walker-Warburg, la distrofia muscular congénita de Fukuyama y la enfermedad músculo-ojo-cerebro.

RDF Unique Identifier: https://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D054222
Scope note: The smooth pebbled appearance of the CEREBRAL CORTEX with a thickened cortex and reduced and abnormal white matter, which results from migration of heterotopic neurons beyond the marginal zone into the leptomeninges through gaps in the external BASEMENT MEMBRANE. There is also enlarged ventricles, underdeveloped BRAINSTEM and cerebellum, and absence of the CORPUS CALLOSUM. These abnormalities occur as a syndrome without other birth defects (cobblestone complex) or in other syndromes associated with congenital MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY, often involving the eye, such as the Walker-Warburg Syndrome, Fukuyama congenital muscular dystrophy, and muscle-eye-brain disease.
