Neuronal Migration Disorder Mimicking Tuberculosis

Abstract

Katia Bravo Jaimes

A previously healthy 20-year-old patient presents to the ER with a tonic-clonic seizure. His siblings had been diagnosed with pulmonary tuberculosis, one of them within the previous six months. His chest x-ray shows an image suggestive of tuberculosis but CT scan and lumbar puncture did not supported CNS infection. A contrast-enhanced MRI was then performed, showing pachygyria and absence of corpus callosum, establishing the diagnosis as a neuronal migration disorder.
