Pediatr Neurol. 2010 Jul;43(1):76-8. doi: 10.1016/j.pediatrneurol.2010.03.001.

Abstract

The association of septo-optic dysplasia and cortical dysplasia is described as septo-optic dysplasia-plus. Reports on patients with septo-optic dysplasia-plus have been rare. We describe a 4-year-old girl with septo-optic dysplasia-plus syndrome, characterized by septo-optic dysplasia with schizencephaly, pachygyria, and diabetes insipidus.
