Sub-lobar dysplasia – a comprehensive evaluation with neuroimaging, magnetoencephalography and histopathology

We report a right temporal sublobar dysplasia, with detailed evaluation with neuroimaging, magnetoencephalography and histopathology to further characterize the pathology. Additional pathological features included a deep collateral sulcus in the basal right temporal lobe, thinned out right corticospinal tract, bilateral asymmetric basal ganglia changes. Magnetoencephalograpy localized the seizure focus to the posterior margin of the dysplasia. Histopathological evaluation helped rule out other types of dysplasia. Similar to a previous study, the child had Engel 1a outcome.
