The transmantle band can frequently be seen in both unilateral and bilateral cases of periventricular nodular heterotopia and can be visualized with conventional 3T MRI sequences. It highlights the underlying neuronal migration issues at play in the pathogenesis of this disorder, but it's underlying role in the complex, patient-specific epileptogenic networks in this cohort has yet to be determined and warrants further investigation.
