Abstract excerpt

Balloon cells are histopathological hallmarks of various cortical malformations, i.e., focal cortical dysplasia (Taylor's type, FCD IIb), hemimegalencephaly (HME) or cortical tubers (tuberous sclerosis, TSC). Whether this intriguing cell type results from similar pathogenetic pathways remains to be shown. Here, we analyzed the immunohistochemical distribution pattern of the CD34 epitope in surgical specimens from...
