Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
I have noted your son's symptoms and
CT scan findings.
First of all, I would like to reassure you that CT scan findings do not suggest any serious brain disease. Gliotic changes refer to an old scar due to
injury or a blood clot in the past.
This CT scan finding may increase the risk of seizures. Tegrital (
carbamazepine) is an anti-epileptic medication, and is used to prevent seizures. If your son has had seizures, he should continue this medication.
I hope my answer helps. Please get back if you have any follow up queries or if you require any additional information.
Wishing you good health,
