Abstract

CUS plays a crucial role in the daily routine of a neonatal care unit, allowing for the early identification of brain injuries and facilitating appropriate clinical planning[1,2]. Malformations of cortical development can manifest as expressions of hereditary metabolic diseases, which can be challenging and time-consuming to diagnose due to their pathophysiological complexity[3]. This case underscores the significance of CUS in the early detection of brain injuries, particularly in newborns without prenatal surveillance[2]. It also emphasizes the role of EEG in evaluating these lesions in newborns, given the limited symptoms observed in this age group. This case serves as a testament to the significant impact of early detection and treatment on promoting positive developmental trajectories and enhancing the quality of life for vulnerable newborns, even if the underlying etiology has not yet been identified.
