This chapter describes and illustrates the changes of the central nervous system in congenital malformations and perinatal diseases; it also provides insights in the genetic abnormalities associated with these conditions. Congenital malformations include neurulation failure resulting in neural tube closure defects; disorders of development of the prosencephalon; malformations of the cortical plate (neuronal heterotopia, polymicrogyria, lissencephaly, and focal cortical dysplasia [a frequent cause of epilepsy in children]); and disorders of hindbrain development, particularly malformations of the cerebellum. Destructive lesions of developing brain are described in association with a variety of situations generally resulting in “hypoxia-ischemia.” They may affect the neocortex, causing porencephaly or hydranencephaly; the basal ganglia (status marmoratus); or the white matter (perinatal telencephalic leukoencephalopathy and periventricular leukomalacia).
