Abstract:
Objective To compare the features of cerebral palsy with pachygyria or periventricular leukomalacia (PVL). Methods 15 children with pachygyria and 35 children with PVL were included. Their diagnosed age, clinical subtype, complications, Gross Motor Func-tion Classification System (GMFCS) were compared. Results The diagnosed age was significantly younger (P<0.001), the GMFCS was lower (P<0.05), the incidence rate of epilepsy was higher (P<0.05), and the intelligence was significantly lower (P<0.001) in the pachygyria group than in the PVL group. Conclusion Cerebral palsy children with pachygyria develope worse than that with PVL, as well as their prog-nosis.
