A full consideration of the radiological and clinical features is necessary before concluding that congenital infection is the cause of ICC, and a systematic approach to the identification and description of radiological findings allows a diagnosis to be made in many cases.

A patient with antenatally detected extensive ICC is reported on, in whom postnatal imaging revealed a distinctive band‐like ICC with abnormal gyral pattern and a negative serology for TORCH infections, which expands the phenotypic spectrum of this recently described heterogenous condition.
