Abstract
Congenital bilateral perisylvian syndrome (CBPS) is a recently described syndrome that includes developmental delay, variable cognitive deficits, prominent cortical pseudobulbar symptoms, and variable pyramidal signs. Seizures are common, and imaging studies are characteristic examinations. The underlying pathology is polymicrogyria. Polymicrogyria may have a focal or regional distribution or involve the whole cortical mantle. Females are affected more often than males. The sylvian fissures often extend more vertically at their posterior extent into the parietal lobes. The abnormality is usually symmetric. In this paper, we present a case of CBPS, and discuss the clinical and radiologic characteristics of this rare condition.
