AVID (Asymmetric VentriculomegalyAsymmetric ventriculomegaly, Interhemisphericinterhemispheric cyst and Dysgenesisdysgenesis of the corpus callosum (AVID) is a recently recognised triad of congenital cerebral anomalies.
Radiographic features
- markedly asymmetric enlargement of the lateral ventricles may be the initial finding on routine fetal morphology ultrasound.
- interhemispheric cyst
- dysgenesis of the corpus callosum
- absent cavum septum pellucidum
- macrocephaly
Associations
Other congenital abnormalities may be present, including Dandy-Walker malformation, grey matter heterotopia or polymicrogyria.
PrognosisTreatment and prognosis
Variable, but generally severe neurologic and developmental delay.
