No, Cortical Dysplasia is not inherited. It is a congenital brain malformation that occurs during early pregnancy. While there still isn't a definitive cause, recent studies have detected human papillomavirus in CD (Cortical Dysplasia).

Should adults with cortical dysplasia not have children?

Although Cortical Dysplasias can cause Epilepsy in some, it doesn't cause it in everyone. The brain has an amazing ability to re-wire itself after injury. It is possible that the brain can function without misfiring and having seizures. I have a 15 year old son with Focal Cortical Dysplasia and so far he has not had a seizure, he is above average intelligence, wrestles, plays guite, draws, bikes, plays full contact Karate. I think there is much more to the brain that needs to be studied. Also, many people don't get MRI's so how do we know if more people don't have this condition? Unless an MRI is done or an autopsy, we will never know how many people have Focal Cortical Dysplasia without symptom,s or seizures.
