Abstract
Congenital bilateral perisylvian syndrome (CBPS) is a rare neuronal migration disorder of cortical development characterized by polymicrogyria on magnetic resonance imaging. Features include pseudobulbar palsy, language and speech difficulties, epilepsy, and cognitive deficits. We discuss the management of the case of a five-year-old male with classical features of CBPS.
