Abstract
Schizencephaly is an uncommon congenital malformation of the central nervous system. It affects the development of the cerebral cortex. It is characterized by a gray matter–lined cleft filled with cerebrospinal fluid that extends from the pial surface to the ventricle. Types are open and closed lip. Etiology can be due to localized ischemia in periventricular germinal matrix, an extreme variant of cortical dysplasia, and autosomal recessive gene involvement. Age of detection ranges from 8 months to 30 years. Scientific literature regarding the association between schizencephaly and psychosis is scarce. Here, we present the first adolescent case in the literature of a 16-year-old female child with schizencephaly and psychosis.
