237 top medical experts on Lissencephaly across 34 countries and 15 U.S. states, including 56 MDs (Physicians). This is based on an objective analysis of their Scientific Publications, Clinical Trials, Medicare, and NIH Grants.

  1. Lissencephaly: A smooth brain malformation of the cerebral cortex resulting from the abnormal location of developing neurons during corticogenesis. It is characterized by an absence of normal convoluted indentations on the surface of the brain (agyria), or fewer and shallower indentations (pachygryia). There is a reduced number of cortical layers, typically 4 instead of 6, resulting in a thickened cortex, and reduced cerebral white matter that is a reversal of the normal ratio of cerebral white matter to cortex.
  2. Clinical guidelines are the recommended starting point to understand initial steps and current protocols in any disease or procedure:
  3. Broader Categories (#Experts): Group II Malformations of Cortical Development (301) and Narrower Categories: Classical Lissencephalies and Subcortical Band Heterotopias (676), Cobblestone Lissencephaly (126).
  4. Clinical Trials ClinicalTrials.gov : at least 1
  5. Synonyms: Agyria,  Pachygyria
