Table I. PGA in Pediatric Epilepsy Surgical Cases (n=120).

In the present cohort of pediatric epilepsy surgery cases, PGA was observed mostly in CD and TSC cases. PGA occurred in only 2 non-CD cases, one Rasmussen’s encephalitis case and one with no remarkable pathology. The difference in the frequency of PGA occurrence between CD and non-CD cases was statistically significant (p=0.01, Chi-square).

PGA % Cases
CD (n=80) 27 34%
CD Type I (n=26) 7 27%
CD Type II (n=50) 17 34%
CD Type III (n=4) 3 75%
TSC (n=15) 2 13%
Non-CD (n=25) 2 8%
Rasmussen’s Encephalitis (n=8) 1 12.5%
Unremarkable, Chaslin Gliosis (n=6) 1 16.7%
Cystic Infarct (n=2) 0 0%
Cystic-gliotic Encephalopathy (n=3) 0 0%
Heterotopia (n=2) 0 0%
Ulegyria (n=2) 0 0%
Prenatal Stroke (n=1) 0 0%
Sturge-Weber (n=1) 0 0%
