Abstract

Dyke-Davidoff-Mason syndrome (DDMS) is characterized by atrophy and cerebral hemisphere, contralateral hemiplegia, focal seizures and mental retardation. The salient radiologic features are cerebral hemiatrophy and calvareal changes. We report a case of uncontrolled right focal seizures and mental retardation in which the cause was found to be DDMS.
