Pachygyria information


Pachygyria
SpecialtyMedical genetics, neurology Edit this on Wikidata

Pachygyria (from the Greek pachy meaning "thick" or "fat" gyri) is a congenital malformation of the cerebral hemisphere. It results in unusually thick convolutions of the cerebral cortex. Typically, children have developmental delay and seizures, the onset and severity depending on the severity of the cortical malformation. Infantile spasms are common in affected children, as is intractable epilepsy.[citation needed]
