What is the pachygyria patient life span?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pachygyria: Pachygyria is a term used to describe thick or fat gyria of the brain. I am not sure anyone has determined life span in these patients, while i would suspect it is shorter than normal but not by much. Children with this disorder do have seizures and this can sometimes shorten life span.
