A case with athetosis, mental retardation, deafness, and pachygyria.
A 6-year-old girl with pachygyria was presented. Regions of pachygiria were seen in the frontal, temporal, and parietal areas in vivo by magnetic resonance imaging. She showed athetosis, mental retardation, deafness, short stature, and microcephalus, but did not show epilepsy. A combination of these symptoms may be a new clinical entity, caused by undetermined prenatal events.
