Cortical dysplasiae are as epileptogenic lesions

https://doi.org/10.17650/1683-3295-2013-0-3-85-91

Abstract

The cortical dysplasias are a kind of malformation due to abnormal cortical development which is a common cause of medically intractable epilepsy. Dysplasia is the frequent pathologic substrate of the MRI-negative localization-related epilepsy. In the review a specification on formation mechanisms of dysplasia, various classifications of the lesions and epileptogenicity of the different types of dysplasia are resulted. Value of multimodal diagnostics and invasive neurophysiological investigations in presurgical evaluation of the patients, and also actual questions of planning of surgical interventions at different variants of the epileptogenic caused by the cortical dysplasia are discussed. Various methods of the resective and deafferentation surgical procedures are presented. Questions of a choice of the surgical strategy, being a subject of discussions are considered.
