Abstract

Cutis verticis gyrata (CVG) is a neurocutaneous syndrome characterized by the formation of folds in the scalp that resembles the cerebral cortex. We present two cases of CVG and intellectual disability with drug-resistant epilepsy. Recognizing CVG is necessary to provide interdisciplinary support for the treatment of comorbidities associated with this entity.

Keywords: cutis verticis gyrata; drug‐resistant epilepsy; epilepsy; intellectual disability; neurocutaneous syndrome.
