Resum
A 3-year-old boy with West syndrome who was shown to have a cystic lesion on magnetic resonance imagings underwent surgical treatment. He had been initially managed with several antiepileptic drugs, but abnormalities on electroencephalography (EEG) persisted. Histological examination of the cystic wall obtained during surgery suggested porencephaly. Two years and 2 months later the child remained seizure-free and his EEG remarkably improved.
