Rare encounter: Adult-onset temporal lobe schizencephaly with septo-optic dysplasia - a case report on comprehensive diagnosis and management.

This case report presents a 21-year-old male with recurrent seizures attributed to isolated temporal lobe closed-lip schizencephaly coexisting with septo-optic dysplasia. Despite adult-onset seizures, the patient lacked motor deficits, maintaining normal developmental milestones. Comprehensive diagnostic modalities, including MRI revealing temporal lobe atrophy and associated abnormalities, contributed to the unique identification of schizencephaly.
