Epilepsy and the frontal lobes
Cortex, 2012Although the frontal lobes contain a large proportion of the total cerebral cortex in human brain, the epilepsies arising in this region are less studied and less well characterised than epilepsies arising in the mesial temporal lobe. Detailed studies of seizure semiology have identified a number of patterns of frontal lobe seizure, but with ...

Epileptic Disorders, 2004
Frontal lobe epilepsy accounts for only 10‐20% of the patients in surgical series, but the incidence in non‐surgical patient cohorts seems to be much higher. The typical clinical presentation of the seizures includes contralateral clonic movements, uni‐ or bilateral tonic motor activity as well as complex automatism.

Memory in frontal lobe epilepsy
Epilepsy Research, 2010In contrast to the well studied long-term memory dysfunction of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) syndromes, data on memory performance of frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) patients are limited and controversial. Behavioural and functional neuroimaging findings suggest that different regions within the frontal lobes contribute to long-term memory functioning ...

Topiramate in frontal lobe epilepsy
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2007Frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) is a type of epilepsy that is difficult to treat and there are few studies about the use of topiramate (TPM).To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of TPM monotherapy in FLE.The study group consisted of 55 (33 male; 22 female) patients. TPM was administered as a first drug (n = 16) or converted after previous treatment (n

Frontal lobe epilepsy in childhood
Pediatric Neurology, 2004Frontal lobe epilepsy is poorly understood and often unrecognized by health care workers caring for children. We sought to better characterize frontal lobe epilepsy in childhood and help delineate this condition from other nonepileptic events. We reviewed pediatric patients admitted to the Comprehensive Epilepsy Program at the University of Alberta ...

Networks in Frontal Lobe Epilepsy
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2020Epilepsy affects about 1% of the general population. Frontal lobe epilepsy is the second most common focal epilepsy accounting for nearly 25% of medically refractory epilepsies. This paper reviews frontal lobe epilepsy from a perspective of a network disease that may help us to understand epilepsy from the microscale of genes, to local neuronal ...

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2012
Mesial frontal lobe epilepsies can be divided into epilepsies arising from the anterior cingulate gyrus and those of the supplementary sensorimotor area. They provide diagnostic challenges because they often lack lateralizing or localizing features on clinical semiology and interictal and ictal scalp electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings.

Stereotactic Investigations in Frontal Lobe Epilepsies
1989The aim of a Stereo-EEG investigation is to verify and prove that the hypothesis, done on the basis of the preliminary investigations (clinical, EEG, neuroradiological), are correct. This task is particularly hard in frontal lobe epilepsies, because of anatomical and physiopathological reasons.

Surgical Therapy of Frontal Lobe Epilepsy
Epilepsia, 1963RÉSUMÉ ET CONCLUSIONS 250 malades ont été opérés au Montreal Neurological Institute, pour cause d'épilepsie du lobe frontal, entre 1929 et le 1 Janvier 1961. Les crises étaient provoquées chez 67 patients (27%) par un néoplasme; chez 183 autres (73%) la lésion causale n'était pas néoplasique. Ce compte‐rendu concerne principalement le dernier groupe.

Diagnosing frontal lobe epilepsy in the ED
The American Journal of Emergency Medicine, 2014Frontal lobe seizures are a common form of epilepsy. It has a variable presentation and can often be missed in the emergency department (ED). Missing this diagnosis can lead to a delay in treatment and poor outcome for cognitive function. We hereby present a case of a 14-year-old girl who presented to our ED after the development of abnormal movements.
