1
Objective: The cortex of patients with cortical dysplasia contains several abnormal cell types.
2
The most marked changes were found in the group with mild cortical dysplasia.
3
Ablative surgery was beneficial for one patient; focal cortical dysplasia was the pathological substrate.
4
Brain MRI revealed thinning of the corpus callosum with no evidence of malformation cortical dysplasia.
5
This study also highlights the lack of interobserver reliability for the diagnosis of mild cortical dysplasia.
6
This finding may lead to the development of novel therapeutic approaches for childhood epilepsy associated with cortical dysplasia.
7
Ms Li's daughter Catherine was diagnosed when she was six-months-old with right frontal cortical dysplasia that can cause epilepsy.
8
Conclusions: Sociodemographic factors of travel distance, insurance, and race influenced time to epilepsy surgery for children with focal cortical dysplasia.
9
Seven cases of focal cortical dysplasia and two cases of transmantle MCD demonstrated grade 3 pattern of white matter tract.
10
Methods: We reviewed 96 consecutive pediatric patients who underwent surgery for medically intractable epilepsy with a diagnosis of focal cortical dysplasia.
11
A strong abnormal increase in immunoreactivity to the high and medium molecular mass neurofilament epitopes was seen in hypertrophic neurons of cortical dysplasia.
12
A second blinded independent neuropathologist with expertise in epilepsy found ILAE type I focal cortical dysplasia in the parahippocampal gyrus in all patients.
13
The most common findings were focal cortical dysplasia and vascular lesions, followed by mesial temporal sclerosis, tumors, and scars from previous cerebral injuries.
14
All these 3 cases had cortical dysplasia(CD) such as schizencephaly and subcortical gray matter, and two of them were associated with mental retardation.
15
Objects: We analyzed 30 patients with cortical dysplasia (CD) and epilepsy to evaluate the clinical characteristics and surgical outcome of both epilepsy control and neurocognition.
16
In the patients with cortical dysplasias, the somatosensory cortices were identified outside the rolandic area.
