A previous report of cerebral hemiatrophy and schizophrenia added to the list of neurodevelopmental abnormalities associated with schizophrenia. In a new case, the birth history indicated perinatal hemorrhage and prematurity (30-31 weeks of gestation). CT and MR imaging showed reduction in left hemisphere size with ventricular enlargement and mild skull thickening. Loss of periventricular white matter was detected. Changes in skull thickness, size of air cells and volume of the cranial vault may be measurable correlates of putative developmental abnormalities in schizophrenia.
