ABSTRACT
Symmetric hypoplasia of the temporal cerebral lobes was demonstrated by magnetic resonance imaging of the brain in a macrocephalic male patient with glutaric aciduria type II within the first week of life. Psychomotor development was normal until the age of 11 months, when the patient died of sudden cardiac arrest. Autopsy revealed symmetric hypoplasia of the temporal cerebral lobes with loss of axons and hypomyelination in the temporal medullary layers.
