Article Synopsis
- Schizencephaly is a rare brain malformation linked to severe neurological issues, with limited research available on its effects and patient characteristics.
- A literature review identified 156 studies involving 734 patients, revealing common issues such as microcephaly, seizures, and bilateral clefts, with significant correlations found between these factors and neurocognitive impairments.
- Key findings suggest that bilateral clefts, motor impairments, microcephaly, and corpus callosum agenesis are major predictors of cognitive dysfunctions in schizencephaly patients, but the lack of large patient groups hampers broader comparisons.
