Übersetzung für 'pachygyria' von Englisch nach Deutsch

pachygyria

Pachygyrie {f}med.

• Zellweger Syndrome is characterized by a cortical dysplasia similar to polymicrogyria of cerebral and cerebellar cortex, occasionally with pachygyria surrounding the Sylvian fissure, and focal/subependymal heterotopia.
• Terms such as "agyria" (no gyri) and "pachygyria" (broad gyri) are used to describe the appearance of the surface of the brain.
• Another malformation worth mentioning because of its connections to pachygyria is polymicrogyria.
• The severity of lissencephaly ranges from a complete loss of brain folds (agyria) to a general reduction in cortical folds(pachygyria).
• Management of epilepsy is difficult, and some pachygyria patients are drug resistant, including to combination therapies.

• These include pachygyria, double cortex syndrome, and lissencephaly, all of which are classified along with CBPS as neuronal migration disorders.
• Polymicrogyria is often confused with pachygyria; therefore, it needs to be distinguished from pachygyria, a distinct brain malformation in which the surface folds are excessively broad and sparse.
