Beyond Broca and Wernicke: Epilepsy surgery in the language areas
Abstract Epilepsy surgery in language areas is challenged by the intricacies of presurgical workup and surgical planning. In recent decades, the view of language‐related circuitry has shifted from being localized in a few cortical centers to a distributed, dynamically interconnected system, increasing complexity.

Indication for Anterior Temporal Lobectomy in Patients with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy and Psychopathology [PDF]
Summary: The chronicity and severity of epilepsy, as well as the presence of temporal lobe foci, appear to correlate with psychopathology. A high prevalence of psychopathology has been reported among patients who are candidates for anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL).

Abstract Objective Verbal memory tasks differ in their cognitive demands and may rely on distinct left medial temporal structures. One model holds that verbal delayed recall is hippocampal dependent, whereas verbal paired associate learning relies on adjacent rhinal cortex.

Temporopolar epilepsy stereoEEG: implant technique and outcomes
The temporal pole (TP) is an under-investigated region in temporal lobe epilepsy, often overlooked during stereoEEG (sEEG) due to the lack of characteristic Phase 1 findings and technical limitations in implanting using traditional orthogonal ...

Microelectrode array scaled for human hippocampal slices
Abstract Objective Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is characterized by recurrent seizures originating usually from the hippocampus, and approximately one‐third of TLE patients remain refractory to pharmacological interventions. Surgical resection offers a potential cure for refractory TLE cases, with approximately 70% achieving seizure freedom. Still, the

The neurosurgical treatment of skull base temporal encephalocele for patients with epilepsy is variable. We describe two adult cases of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) with spheno-temporal encephalocele, currently seizure-free for more than two years after ...

Does having bad epilepsy make you a good surgical candidate? A number needed to treat analysis
Abstract Epilepsy surgery is an established treatment for drug‐resistant epilepsy, offering a realistic prospect of seizure freedom in well‐selected candidates. However, surgery is sometimes offered to individuals with a low probability of seizure freedom when it is framed as potentially “life‐saving” on the basis of the elevated mortality associated ...
