A Clinical Study on Frontal Lobe Epilepsy

Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, 1988
Of 30 patients whose epileptogenic focus was presumed to be located in the frontal lobe on the basis of a clinico-electrographic correlation, the principal seizure manifestation consisted of peculiar automatisms in about 40% of the cases. However, the nature of the automatisms was of a short duration lasting about one minute but in most cases it was ...

Psychosis as a manifestation of frontal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2008
A 7-year-old girl presented with a cluster of seizures occurring in one day and followed by the development of paranoid delusions. Her electroencephalogram (EEG) revealed a psychomotor variant. Cranial MRI was normal, but the 2-deoxy-2-[(18)F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) scan showed hypometabolism in the left inferior ...

Epilepsy and variation in the frontal lobe artery

Epilepsy Research, 2005
A patient with a rare variation of fronto-orbital artery (FOA) that developed generalized tonic and clonic seizures is reported. The epilepsy focus was in her left frontal region, where blood was supplied by the contralateral fronto-orbital artery. The region was vulnerable to ischemic changes due to a decrease in blood CO2 gas caused by an increase in

Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy in mucopolysaccharidosis

Brain and Development, 2014
Nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (NFLE) is an epileptic syndrome that is primarily characterized by seizures with motor signs occurring almost exclusively during sleep. We describe 2 children with mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) who were referred for significant sleep disturbance.

Outcome of frontal lobe epilepsy surgery

Epilepsia, 2012
SummaryPurpose:  There is still controversy in deciding which patients with frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE) should undergo resective surgery, even though it is a well‐established therapy. The aim of this study is to define multiple outcome measures and determine whether there are certain subpopulations of preferred surgical candidates that have a more ...

Social cognition in frontal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2005
This study investigated the social cognitive functioning of patients with frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE), using a range of procedures that have shown impairments in patients following focal prefrontal brain lesions. Fourteen participants with FLE were compared with 14 healthy controls on story tests of theory of mind (ToM), faux pas appreciation, mental ...

[Frontal lobe epilepsy in infancy: is there a benign partial frontal lobe epilepsy?].

Revista de neurologia, 1998
Only the organic and cryptogenic forms of frontal lobe epilepsy have been admitted by the ILAE, but according to several reports in the literature, it probably exists also an idiopathic form, at present not well recognized.To study the differences between the organic and the cryptogenic forms of frontal epilepsy in our patients, that might indicate the

Electrocorticography and outcome in frontal lobe epilepsy

Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1998
The prognostic significance of epileptiform activity (EA) recorded at electrocorticography (ECOG) was examined in a group of 60 consecutive non-tumoral patients with intractable frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE). Pre-excision EA was documented as absent, focal (one gyrus), regional (two gyri), lobar (3 gyri) or multilobar (frontal + temporal gyri).

EEG findings in frontal lobe epilepsies

Neurology, 1998
As a group, epilepsies of frontal lobe origin are thought to be poorly localized using surface EEG recordings. This finding may depend on the specific areas of frontal lobe from which the seizures originate or the pathologic substrate. We reviewed the presurgical surface EEGs of patients with frontal lobe epilepsy who underwent epilepsy surgery.

The Sleep Manifestations of Frontal Lobe Epilepsy

Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2011
Frontal lobe seizures have a tendency to occur from sleep, and in some cases occur exclusively (or almost exclusively) from sleep; these individuals are said to have nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (NFLE). NFLE can be difficult to distinguish clinically from various other sleep disorders, particularly parasomnias, which also present with paroxysmal ...
