Resumo: In this article, an update is presented of the correlation of imaging and genetic findings in congenital malformations of the central nervous system (CMCNS). A nonsystematic search of the PubMed/Medline database was performed. The congenital disorders were classified in 3 groups of malformation: ventral induction disorders, cortical malformations, and congenital malformations of the posterior fossa. The highlights of genotype-imaging phenotype correlation of some congenital malformations are provided. It is hoped that developments in genotype-MR phenotype in CMCNS will foster further prognostic and pathogenic breakthroughs for the frequently associated neurologic dysfunction in children affected by these common diseases.
