Bɔrku tɛm, dis sik wae dɛn kɔl ``Megalencephaly`` kin apun wit ɔda mεdikal kכndyushכn dεm. Di men tin we kin mek dis apin na we di jɛnɛtiks kin chenj.

Wetin na di men kayn `(Megalencephaly)`?

Tri men kayn dis sik de:

1. Praymari Mɛgalɛnsɛfali: Dɛn kin kɔl dis bak Bɛnign Famili Mɛgalɛnsɛfali ɔ Idiopatik Mɛgalɛnsɛfali. If na so i bi, di pikin gɛt big bren, bɔt nɔ ɔda sayn ɔr nyurolɔjik prɔblɛm nɔ de. Bɔku tɛm, wan pan dɛn mama ɛn papa ɔ dɛn ɔl tu kin gɛt big ed bak. Yu pikin in ed saiz kin go ɔp smɔl smɔl te i ol lɛk 18 mɔnt, afta dat i kin stebul.

2. Mεtabolik Mεgalεnsεfali: Dis kin kכz fכ di mistek dεm we wi bכn wit fכ mεtabolism, we na wan grup fכ jεnεtik kכndishכn dεm we de afekt di we aw wi bכdi de proכses it.

3. Anatomic Megalencephaly: Dis kayn we de kכz fכ wan jin mכtεshכn we de afekt di divεlכpmεnt fכ di pikin in nεv sεstem. Dɛn kin tek dis as nyurodivɛlɔpmɛnt disɔda. Dɛn kin si dis sik wae dɛn kɔl Megalencephaly as sayn fɔ wan ɔndalayn sik wae gɛt dis kayn sik.

Di dɔktɔ we de trit yu pikin go mɔs no di kayn mɛgalɛnsɛfali bay us say na di bren (ɛmisfya) we big pas aw dɛn bin de tink:

• Yunilatɛral Mɛgalɛnsɛfali (Hɛmimɛgalɛnsɛfali / Yunilatɛral Mɛgalɛnsɛfali):Wetin kin apin pan dis na dat na wan say nɔmɔ na di bren kin big pas di ɔda wan.
• Baylateral Megalencephaly: Dis kin afɛkt ɔl tu di say dɛn na di bren. Baylatar min "ɔl tu di say dɛm."

Wetin na di sayn dɛm fɔ dis sik?

De sayn dɛm wae de sho se yu gɛt mɛgalɛnsɛfali kin difrɛn. Sɔm pikin dɛn nɔ kin gɛt ɛni sayn ɛn dɛn kin jɔs gɛt ed we big. Bɔt sɔm pikin dɛn kin gɛt sɔm sayn dɛn lɛk:

So, wetin kin mek dis apin?
