Clinical and MRI findings of a suspected cortical malformation presented as a giant cerebral pseudomass in a German Shepherd dog

Abstract

Abstract A 5‐month‐old German Shepherd dog was presented with cluster seizures. MR imaging showed a large irregular pseudomass in the central region of the cranial cavity, compatible with a malformation of cortical development. Despite the extensive changes, the patient was neurologically normal interictally 1 year following diagnosis.
