Problems of diagnosing focal cortical dysplasia
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is one of the most common causes in developing pharmacoresistant epilepsy. We present the clinical case of the patient with generalized seizures.

Multimodal mapping of regional brain vulnerability to focal cortical dysplasia.
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II is a highly epileptogenic developmental malformation and a common cause of surgically treated drug-resistant epilepsy. While clinical observations suggest frequent occurrence in the frontal lobe, mechanisms for such

The changing landscape in epilepsy imaging: Unmasking subtle and unique entities
Dramatic changes have occurred recently in the field of epilepsy, including a fundamental shift in the etiology of epileptogenic substrates found at surgery. Hippocampal sclerosis is no longer the most common etiology found at epilepsy surgery and this

Anti-seizure gene therapy for focal cortical dysplasia
Focal Cortical Dysplasias (FCDs) are a common subtype of malformation of cortical development, which frequently present with a spectrum of cognitive and behavioural abnormalities as well as pharmacoresistant epilepsy.

Focal cortical dysplasias are among the most common causes of intractable epilepsy in children. As the neuropathology of these conditions has been better clarified, the nomenclature has undergone numerous revisions. Their recognition has grown with the use of neuroimaging, and recent advances in imaging technology will further improve detection ...

Presurgical non-invasive diagnosis of focal cortical dysplasia
In recent decades, MRI increased the success rate of the diagnosis and surgical treatment of epilepsy. Approximately 30% of patients with epilepsy suffer from the drug-resistant form of this disease.

Focal Cortical Dysplasia in Pediatric Epilepsy [PDF]
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common cause of intractable focal epilepsy in children undergoing epilepsy surgery. In these patients, seizures usually develop in early childhood and are often explosive from their onset. This review summarizes

Focal cortical dysplasia: a practical guide for neurologists
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a malformation of cortical development characterised by disruption of cortical cytoarchitecture. Classification of FCDs subtypes has initially been based on correlation of the histopathology with relevant clinical ...

Sirolimus for epileptic seizures associated with focal cortical dysplasia type II
To determine whether sirolimus, a mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, reduces epileptic seizures associated with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) type II.
