Objective To make the model of Wistar suckling rats Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) by liquid nitrogen freezing brain cortex and verify it. Analysed the electroencephalogram (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of the FCD model, in order to provide theoretical and experimental basis for human FCD diagnosis and treatment. Methods Take the first day of Wistar suckling rats as experimental object, liquid nitrogen freezing Wistar suckling rats brain cortex.Make examination of EEG and MRI for Wistar suckling rats. The Brain tissue slice of Wistar suckling rats model dyed by HE and check with light microscope examination. Results In experiment group, the sample epileptic discharge rate of EEG was about 41.6% on average, and showed visible spike wave, spine slow wave frequency distribution. Experimental Wistar suckling rats MRI showed positive performance for long T1 and long T2 signal, brain tissue slices HE staining showed brain cortex layer structure and columnar structure disorder, exist abnormal neurons and the balloon sample cells. Conclusion The method of liquid nitrogen freezing Wistar suckling rats cortex can established FCDⅢd animal models successfully, and showed specific EEG and MRI, which has important value for diagnosis and treatment of human FCD.
