We retrospectively reviewed the clinical, epileptic, and morphologic manifestations of bilateral symmetrical polymicrogyria in 21 patients to determine whether certain areas are at particular risk for these syndromes. METHO...

Polymicrogyria, which is characterized by an excessive number of small gyri with abnormal cortical lamination, is a common malformation of cerebral cortical development. The incidence of polymicrogyria is unknown. The diagnosis of polymicrogyria is being made more frequently due to advances in magnetic resonance imaging.

متن کاملBilateral focal polymicrogyria in Ehlers-Danlos syndrome.
BACKGROUND Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) is a heterogeneous group of generalized connective tissue disorders that has been described in association with epilepsy and cerebral cortical dysplasia, mostly gray matter heterotopias, in 3 reports. However, to our knowledge, association of EDS with another type of cortical cerebral dysplasia, bilateral focal polymicrogyria, has never previously been de...
