MRI of focal cortical dysplasia [PDF]
AbstractFocal cortical dysplasia (FCD) are histopathologically categorized in ILAE type I to III. Mild malformations of cortical development (mMCD) including those with oligodendroglial hyperplasia (MOGHE) are to be integrated into this classification yet. Only FCD type II have distinctive MRI and molecular genetics alterations so far.

Cortical development and focal cortical dysplasia
A brief survey of cortical development is presented, focusing on neuronal migration and its alterations. Corticogenesis is achieved through ordered temporospatial steps, via the formation of transient structures, and successive waves of cell proliferation and migration (followed by cell differentiation and maturation), and apoptotic cell death.

Focal Cortical Dysplasia Type IIB and Human Papillomavirus
Researchers at Temple University School of Medicine, Philadelphia, PA tested the hypothesis that human papillomavirus type 16 oncoprotein E6 (HPV16 E6) is present in human focal cortical dysplasia type IIB (FCDIIB) specimens.

FOCAL CORTICAL DYSPLASIA: ALGORITHM OF PREOPERATIVE EXAMINATION
In this paper we are discussing the issues of diagnosis, classification, features of preoperative evaluation and surgical treatment of focal cortical dysplasia in children. Particular attention is paid to the complexities of visualization of FCD, as well
