Hello,
What you describe abnormalities of the brain. Those findings only describe the undeveloped parts of the brain, but they do not provide a cause, an origin to be treated.
These underdeveloped areas are probably that way since your daughter was born, due to a genetic abnormality, or damage from low oxygen or infections.
I am afraid that usually, this type of damage is irreversible, there is no treatment apart from supportive one.
Of course I don't know all the particulars of the case, you don't mention even her age, but generally speaking there is little that can usually be done for this type of damage, unfortunately.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olsi Taka, Neurologist
