Bilateral Giant Open-Lip Schizencephaly: A Rare Case Report
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2018, Vol 17, Issue 1
Abstract
Schizencephaly is a congenital condition characterized by cerebrospinal fluid-filled clefts that extend from the pia surface of the cerebral hemisphere to the ependymal surface of the ventricle. The margins of the cleft are lined with heterotropic, dysplastic gray matter. Magnetic resonance imaging is the modality of choice for its diagnosis. The condition is present at birth and present early in life. Here we present an adult patient with schizencephaly presenting with first onset seizure.
