Taylor dysplasia is a type of focal cortical dysplasia and a common cause of refractory epilepsy. Under both the Palmini classification and the more recent Blumcke classification of focal cortical dysplasia, Taylor dysplasia is classified as type II.
For further discussion of the radiographic features please refer to the parent article: focal cortical dysplasia.
Pathology
Taylor dysplasia is determined histologically due to the presence of certain features such as giant neurons, dysmorphic neurons with or without balloon cells . The latter further divides FCDT into two main subtypes .
- type IIa: no balloon cells
- type IIb: balloon cells present
See: Palmini classification and Blumcke classification.
History and etymology
Taylor dysplasia is named after David C. Taylor, a British psychiatrist who first described it in 1971 .
