Epilepsy is a neurological disease characterized by recurrent unprovoked seizures. Individuals who are refractory to medications may be candidates to surgical treatment. Malformation of cortical development (MCD), a common cause of refractory epilepsy, corresponds to a wide range of lesions including focal cortical dysplasia (FCD). Classical histopathological findings observed in FCD spec…
Gliomas are the most common adult brain tumors. High-grade astrocytomas are astrocyte-derived gliomas, which pathogenesis includes overexpression of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and loss of p53 and phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) protein function. Such proteins regulate cell cycle and DNA stability. Additionally, it has been described that gli…
