Bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria and epilepsy.

Two patients with bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria are reported. Severe developmental delay, mental retardation, spastic tetraplegia, and seizures were the main clinical features. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a bilateral thick cortex with irregular gyri and a festoonlike gray-white matter junction. Bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria may represent a further form of the bilateral polymicrogyria syndromes in addition to perisylvian and parasagittal parieto-occipital polymicrogyria.
