Multimodal modeling of the ictal onset zone in refractory insular epilepsy and seizure outcome of magnetic resonance‐guided laser interstitial therapy: A pediatric single‐center retrospective study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to evaluate seizure outcomes after magnetic resonance‐guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRgLITT) in children with insular epilepsy and to assess how the extent of ablation overlaps with multimodal definitions of the ictal onset zone (IOZ).

Transcriptomic analysis reveals distinct expression patterns in focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a common cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy in children and adults and exhibits substantial clinical and histopathological heterogeneity. However, morphological classification alone does not fully explain variability in epileptogenicity, disease severity, or treatment response.

ILAE genetic literacy series: Focal cortical dysplasia

open access: yes
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a common cause of drug-resistant focal epilepsy in children and young adults and is often surgically remediable. The genetics of FCD are increasingly understood due to the ability to perform genomic testing including ...

Reasons for not reoperating and outcomes of reoperation after seizure recurrence in pediatric epilepsy surgery: A population‐based study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy surgery is an established and effective treatment for children with drug‐resistant epilepsy. Although the majority of patients become seizure‐free postoperatively, 20%–40% experience seizure recurrence. Although repeat surgery can achieve seizure freedom in selected cases, the reasons children with seizure recurrence do not ...

Cortical surface analysis for focal cortical dysplasia diagnosis by using PET images

open access: yesHeliyon
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is a neurological disorder distinguished by faulty brain cell structure and development. Repetitive and uncontrollable seizures may be linked to FCD's aberrant cortical thickness, gyrification, and sulcal depth ...

Epilepsy syndromes classification

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy syndromes are distinct electroclinical entities which have been recently defined by the International League Against Epilepsy Nosology and Definitions Task Force. Each syndrome is associated with “a characteristic cluster of clinical and EEG features, often supported by specific etiologic findings”.

Precision therapies for genetic epilepsies in 2025: Promises and pitfalls

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract By targeting the underlying etiology, precision therapies offer an exciting paradigm shift to improve the stagnant outcomes of drug‐resistant epilepsies, including developmental and epileptic encephalopathies. Unlike conventional antiseizure medications (ASMs) which only treat the symptoms (seizures) but have no effect on the underlying ...

The expression of astroglial glutamate transporters in patients with focal cortical dysplasia: an immunohistochemical study

open access: yes, 2009
An abnormal increase in the extracellular glutamate is thought to play a crucial role in the initiation, spread, and maintenance of seizure activity.In normal conditions, the majority of this excess glutamate is cleared via glial glutamate transporters ...
