Abstract:
A Japanese boy with congenital bilateral perisylvian syndrome is described. He had oropharyngoglossal dysfunction and severe dysarthria. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain disclosed bilateral perisylvian malformations suggesting polymicrogyria. The patient also showed mental retardation, epilepsy, and poor motor skills.
