ILAE neuroimaging task force highlight: MRI detection of early life epilepsy caused by focal cortical dysplasia

Epileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 520-529, August 2025.
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

Epilepsia partialis continua responsive to intravenous levetiracetam [PDF]

Seizure, 2009
We report on a case of epilepsia partialis continua with rapid response to intravenous bolus administration of levetiracetam. A 60-year-old woman presented with continuous jerking of the right foot and hallux persisting for more than two days. She had a 9-year history of epilepsy due to a left temporoparietal oligodendroglioma with occasional focal ...

Longitudinal PET and MRI Evaluation in Late Onset Rasmussen Encephalitis: A Series of Three Cases

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is a rare, chronic, neurological disorder characterized by progressive focal epilepsy and hemispheric atrophy. Late‐onset RE poses diagnostic challenges due to atypical clinical features and nonspecific early MRI findings.

Intracranial stimulation for pediatric refractory epilepsy: A single institutional experience using evolving therapies

Epilepsia Open, Volume 10, Issue 3, Page 694-704, June 2025.
Abstract Objective Neuromodulation for pediatric refractory epilepsy (PRE) is preferred when the seizure onset zone is not amenable to surgical resection, due to multifocal onset or involvement of eloquent cortex. Given its rapidly evolving landscape, we describe our institutional experience with neurostimulation therapies including deep brain ...

Prognostic significance of acute epilepsia partialis continua [PDF]

Pediatric Neurology, 1991
We present 3 patients in whom epilepsia partialis continua was the presenting sign of an acute, rapidly evolving and catastrophic neurologic illness. Initial seizures were partial simple (i.e., eye deviation in one, finger twitching in one) which progressed to multifocal partial seizures.
