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

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

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 ...

Frontal Lobe Epilepsy: The Next Frontier

Clinical Electroencephalography, 1998
Frontal lobe epilepsy, the great new epileptological challenge, presents enormous difficulties that still preclude a more profound understanding at the present time. The major subdivision of the frontal lobe into a prefrontal and premotor portion is the first step toward a better and yet limited comprehension of the frontal lobe epilepsies.
