EEG, dash electroretinogram (ERG), and visual evoked potential (VEP) findings are described in eight children with classical lissencephaly (six girls, two boys), with a mean age of 17.6 months (range 2 to 60 months). The EEG shows typically high-voltage activity. Eye movements were formally recorded in two patients, and both showed features associated with oculomotor apraxia, The ERG and VEP to dash stimulation were normal in all cases. Two subjects had pattern reversal stimulation, and their pattern VEPs were within normal limits. Some patients with lissencephaly may appear to have delayed visual maturation on first presentation, and EEG and eye movement studies are valuable in indicating neurological deficiency at an early stage in these subjects.

We report on the case of a 20-year-old man with bilateral parasagittal parieto-occipital polymicrogyria and epilepsy. Functional magnetic resonance imaging responses to reversing checkerboard and interhemispheric electroencephalogram coherence changes to moving gratings were investigated. Results of both studies indicate that the polymicrogyric cortex was activated by visual stimuli, suggesting preserved function in the dysplastic area.

Two patients with bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria are reported. Severe developmental delay, mental retardation, spastic tetraplegia, and seizures were the main clinical features. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a bilateral thick cortex with irregular gyri and a festoonlike gray-white matter junction. Bilateral frontoparietal polgmicrogyria may represent a further form of the bilateral polymicrogyria syndromes in addition to perisylvian and parasagittal parieto-occipital polymicrogyria.
