Interictal cerebral metabolism in partial epilepsies of neocortical origin. [PDF]
Epilepsy Research, 1991 We performed interietal [18F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) in 24 patients with partial epilepsy of neocortical origin. Two-thirds of patients had regions of hypometabolism.

Facial Asymmetry in Partial Epilepsies
Epilepsia, 1992Summary: Fifty‐six consecutive epileptic patients with partial seizures (30 temporal, 26 extratemporal) and facial asymmetry were studied. Facial asymmetry was compared with EEG, radiologic, and other clinical findings. Thirty patients had a lesional epilepsy whereas 26 were considered cryptogenic.

Interview accuracy in partial epilepsy
Epilepsy & Behavior, 2009The statistical concept of accuracy has never been applied to verify the history data collected on seizure disorders by open format interview. We compared patients'/witnesses' descriptions of epileptic seizures with videotaped seizure characteristics and analyzed the accuracy (ACC), sensitivity (SN), specificity (SP), false-positive rate (FPR), and ...

The role of PET in presurgical assessment of partial epilepsies.
Epileptic disorders, 2004In the presurgical assessment of drug refractory partial epilepsies PET represents a privileged means for investigating glucose metabolism and neurotransmission in the functional-deficit zone, defined as the region of cortex that is functioning ...

Is There a Partial Benign Epilepsy in Infancy?
Epilepsia, 1989Summary: Benign idiopathic neonatal convulsions and partial benign childhood epilepsy, the most frequent types of childhood benign epilepsy, are both characterized by partial seizures. This study was performed to determine whether any kind of benign epilepsy with partial seizures occurs in the age range between these two syndromes.

Vigabatrin for refractory partial epilepsy
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2008Epilepsy is a common neurological condition which affects between 0.5% and 1% of the population. Approximately 30% of people with epilepsy do not respond to treatment with currently available drugs, and the majority of these people have partial epilepsy. Vigabatrin is an antiepileptic drug licensed for use in the treatment of refractory epilepsy.

Partial epilepsy with “ecstatic” seizures
Epilepsy & Behavior, 2003Reports focusing on auras of ecstasy or pleasure have been limited largely to single case descriptions. We examined 11 consecutive patients with such ictal symptoms. Eight had sensory hallucinations, four had erotic sensations, five described "a religious/spiritual experience," and several had symptoms that were felt to have no counterpart in human ...

Felbamate in refractory partial epilepsy
Epilepsy Research, 1999This open-label study was performed to evaluate efficacy and safety of Felbamate (FBM) add-on therapy in drug-refractory partial epilepsy. We evaluated 36 patients (12 males) aged 11-68 years (mean 29.8) in which FBM was titrated gradually from 300 mg/day to a mean total maintenance daily dose of 1936 mg.

Neuroimaging in Epilepsy: Diagnostic Strategies in Partial Epilepsy
Seminars in Neurology, 2008The diagnostic evaluation of the patient with partial or localization-related epilepsy is designed to identify treatment strategies that will permit the individual to be seizure-free. The use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been pivotal in elucidating the presence of an epileptogenic pathological alteration that may coexist with the site of ...
