What is Focal Cortical Dysplasia in Pediatric Epilepsy about?

Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a common cause of medication-resistant epilepsy in children. The paper reviews the current classification of FCD into three types based on histological findings, as well as recent advances in understanding the pathophysiology from human and animal studies. Imaging techniques like MRI and DTI have improved detection and characterization of FCD, helping to identify surgical targets and develop new treatment approaches for epilepsy associated with FCD.
