Language function following anterior temporal lobectomy

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1991
✓ The authors report the results of a prospective investigation that evaluated postoperative changes in language function after dominant (29 cases) or nondominant (35 cases) anterior temporal lobectomy for treatment of complex partial seizures. These patients received conservative resection of lateral temporal cortex but aggressive resection of medial ...

Effects of anterior temporal lobectomy on cognitive function

Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1987
Sixty-three patients with intractable partial complex epilepsy were treated by anterior temporal lobectomy for seizure control. Psychometric studies before and after operation documented cognitive function and evaluated the effects of operation on cognition. The mean follow-up period was 7.7 months. Sixty-two of 63 patients had improved seizure control;

Anterior temporal lobectomy for older adults with mesial temporal sclerosis

Epilepsy Research, 2016
To compare postoperative seizure-free survival between older and younger adults.A retrospective cohort of 107 temporal lobe epilepsy patients with a diagnosis of mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS) received anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) between 1993 and 2014.

Neural plasticity following anterior temporal lobectomy

2021
This study followed patients with temporal lobe epilepsy from pre to post-surgical status in order to investigate neuroplasticity and recovery of memory function. Functional changes were characterized using BOLD fMRI acquisition during a scene memory encoding task.

Acute effect of anterior temporal lobectomy on musical processing

Neuropsychologia, 1991
Patients with intractable epilepsy treated by anterior temporal lobectomy (Right, RT, n = 12; Left, LT, n = 9) and healthy controls (n = 12) with no musical training were prospectively evaluated with a standardized battery, including the Musical Aptitude Profile and the Seashore Tonal Memory Test.

Predictors of outcome after anterior temporal lobectomy

Neurology, 1994
The intracarotid amobarbital test (IAT) examines hemispheric memory and language. We set out to determine whether memory performance on the IAT correlated with seizure relief after anterior temporal lobectomy in 117 patients with refractory epilepsy.

Short-term psychological outcome of anterior temporal lobectomy

Journal of Neurosurgery, 1989
✓ The purpose of this investigation was to determine the short-term behavioral and emotional effects of anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL). Forty-one patients who underwent ATL were administered a standardized measure of emotional adjustment (Mental Health Inventory) on four occasions: preoperatively, and 1,3, and 6 months postoperatively.

Visual discrimination after anterior temporal lobectomy in humans

Neurology, 1999
To determine whether right anterior temporal lobectomy (RTL) results in perceptual deficits, and whether the perception of particular stimulus features (i.e., shape, motion, color) is affected differentially.RTL results in abnormal visual discrimination, recognition, and recall of pictorial material that cannot be easily specified verbally, such as ...

Gaze holding after anterior-inferior temporal lobectomy

Neurological Sciences, 2014
Eye position-sensitive neurons are found in parietooccipital and anterior-inferior temporal cortex. Putative role of these neurons is to facilitate transformation of reference frame from the retina-fixed to world-fixed coordinates and assure precise action.

Anterior Temporal Lobectomy and Amygdalo-Hippocampectomy

2018
The history of surgery for epilepsy is dominated by the treatment of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). The studies of Penfield in 1936 [1] on cortical excisions and Penfield and Jaspers in 1954 [2] on the functional anatomy of the temporal lobe are historical landmarks in this field, followed by the development of the temporal lobectomy by Falconer in 1953
