Focal cortical dysplasia – review
Focal cortical dysplasia is a malformation of cortical development, which is the most common cause of medically refractory epilepsy in the pediatric population and the second/third most common etiology of medically intractable seizures in adults.Both genetic and acquired factors are involved in the pathogenesis of cortical dysplasia. Numerous classifications of the complex structural abnormalit...
متن کاملFocal Cortical Dysplasia.
Focal cortical dysplasias are common malformations of cerebral cortical development and are highly associated with medically intractable epilepsy. They have been classified into neuropathological subtypes (type Ia, Ib, IIa, IIb, and III) based on the severity of cytoarchitectural disruption--tangential or radial dispersion, or loss of laminar structure--and the presence of unique cells types su...
متن کاملCortical 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. The appearance of the proliferative ventricular zo...
متن کاملCalcium‐binding proteins in focal cortical dysplasia
OBJECTIVE Alterations in γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-ergic cortical neurons have been reported in focal cortical dysplasia (FCD)Ia/IIIa, a malformation of cortical development associated with drug-resistant epilepsy. We compared numbers of neurons containing calcium-binding proteins parvalbumin (PV), calbindin (CB), and calretinin (CR) and densities of respective fibers in lateral temporal lobe ...
متن کاملAdenosine kinase expression in cortical dysplasia with balloon cells: analysis of developmental lineage of cell types.
Focal cortical dysplasia type IIB (FCDIIB) is a developmental malformation of the cerebral cortex that is associated with pharmacoresistant epilepsy. Overexpression of adenosine kinase (ADK) has been regarded as a pathologic hallmark of epilepsy. We hypothesized that the epileptogenic mechanisms underlying FCDIIB are related to abnormal ADK expression. We used immunohistochemistry to examine th...
