Language Dominance in Patients With Malformations of Cortical Development and Epilepsy

Conclusions: In this prospective study on a large group of patients with MCD and epilepsy, about two-thirds had atypical language dominance. These results may contribute to assessing risks of postsurgical language deficits and could assist in planning of “cortical mapping” with intracranial electrodes in patients who undergo presurgical assessment.
