Malformation of the Cerebral Cortex with Heterotopia of the Gray Matter

Abstract

Developmental malformation of the cerebral cortex with heterotopia of the gray matter is a rare condition. It can present as unilateral megalencephaly, a localized mass, or focal cortical dysplasia. Four histologically confirmed cases are described in this report, and the findings from computed tomography as well as from other radiological diagnostic procedures are discussed.
