The epileptologist's perspective of focal cortical dysplasia type 3: From concept to management
Abstract The recent International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) official and updated classification of focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) includes a third type—FCD type 3—characterized by architectural abnormalities (cortical dyslamination) associated with another “principal” lesion: hippocampal sclerosis (HS), developmental tumors, vascular malformations,

Lingual epilepsia partialis continua in Rasmussen's encephalitis
We report an adult male who presented with disabling dysarthria due to epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) of the left half of the tongue. The clinical, brain magnetic resonance imaging and electroencephalographic features were consistent with Rasmussen's

Ketotic hyperglycemia and epilepsia partialis continua
Epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) may occur during nonketotic hyperglycemia but has not been described with diabetic ketoacidosis. The authors report a patient with EPC associated with ketotic hyperglycemia. Brain MRI showed two areas of abnormal signal

Diagnosis and treatment of occipital brain lesions in children
Occipital brain lesions in children represent a diagnostic challenge due to the large spectrum of etiologies and overlapping clinical features. This review analyses common and less common causes of occipital brain lesions in children, including malformative, vascular, genetic/metabolic, infectious, inflammatory, and neoplastic conditions.

Probable sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease mimicking focal epilepsy
Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) presents with seizures as an early symptom in only approximately 3% of cases. These seizures often present as nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) or epilepsia partialis continua (EPC).

Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Seminars in epileptology: How to diagnose status epilepticus in adults and children
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) can be regarded as the most severe expression of seizure activity characterized by a low probability of spontaneous cessation and mechanisms leading to metabolic and inflammatory derangements with increased risk of brain damage, alterations of neural networks, and potentially life‐threatening systemic complications ...

Abstract The ILAE Neuroimaging Task Force aims to publish educational case reports that highlight basic aspects of neuroimaging in epilepsy consistent with the ILAE's educational mission. Here, we describe a case series of three neonates with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD)‐related drug‐resistant epilepsy who underwent surgical intervention. The purpose
