متن کاملBilateral Frontal Polymicrogyria - An Autopsy Case Report -
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. Several region-specific bilateral polymicrogyria syndromes have been descr...
