Hello
Gliosis and encephalomalacia are generally sequel of past injury to brain tissue.Injury may be in the form of infection,trauma,inflammation etc.
It may be due to trauma in your brother's case.
These specific finding are due to reparative mechanism in brain and these are irreversible findings.
Your brother may only need supportive conservative treatment.
He may need anti-epileptic medicines and symptomatic treatment.
Get well soon.
