Bilateral population receptive fields in congenital hemihydranencephaly

Congenital hemihydranencephaly (HH) is a very rare disorder characterised by prenatal near‐complete unilateral loss of the cerebral cortex. We investigated a patient affected by congenital right HH whose visual field extended significantly into the both visual hemifields, suggesting a reorganisation of the remaining left visual hemisphere. We examined the early visual cortex reorganisation using functional MRI (7T) and population receptive field (pRF) modelling.
