21-year-old female patient with complaints of forgetfulness, twitching of eyes, and short stature later diagnosed with coexistence of ectopic neurohypophysis, corpus callosum dysgenesis, and periventricular neuronal heterotopia. A coronal non-contrast T1-weighted MRI image reveals a hyperintense ectopic posterior pituitary adjacent to the optic chiasm, at the level of the median eminence of the hypothalamus (arrows). The bright dot in the ectopic site indicates neurohypophysis.

21-year-old female patient with complaints of forgetfulness, twitching of eyes, and short stature later diagnosed with coexistence of ectopic neurohypophysis, corpus callosum dysgenesis, and periventricular neuronal heterotopia. Sagittal T2-weighted MRI image reveals partial dysgenetic view of the corpus callosum and protrusion of cingulated gyrus (arrow).

At the same time, partial dysgenesis of corpus callosum and periventricular neuronal heterotopia were observed on the MR images [Figures 2 and 3].
21-year-old female patient with complaints of forgetfulness, twitching of eyes, and short stature later diagnosed with coexistence of ectopic neurohypophysis, corpus callosum dysgenesis, and periventricular neuronal heterotopia. Axial T2-weighted MRI image reveals an appearance that is compatible with periventricular-subependymal heterotopic neuronal tissue (arrows).
