The usefulness of intraoperative electrocorticography (iECoG) in pediatric temporal lobe epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aimed to evaluate the usefulness of intraoperative electrocorticography (iECoG) in providing a more accurate surgical strategy, thereby yielding seizure freedom following resective surgery in children with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE).

'Unforgettable' : a pictorial essay on anatomy and pathology of the hippocampus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The hippocampus is a small but complex anatomical structure that plays an important role in spatial and episodic memory. The hippocampus can be affected by a wide range of congenital variants and degenerative, inflammatory, vascular, tumoral and toxic ...

Arterial spin labeling performs comparably to 2‐[18F]fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose positron emission tomography for presurgical evaluation in pediatric lesional epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study was undertaken to test whether arterial spin labeling (ASL) performs comparably to 2‐[18F]fluoro‐2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose positron emission tomography (FDG‐PET), the mainstay functional imaging technique, in pediatric lesional epilepsy, while avoiding radiotracer exposure and additional sedation.

Does having bad epilepsy make you a good surgical candidate? A number needed to treat analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy surgery is an established treatment for drug‐resistant epilepsy, offering a realistic prospect of seizure freedom in well‐selected candidates. However, surgery is sometimes offered to individuals with a low probability of seizure freedom when it is framed as potentially “life‐saving” on the basis of the elevated mortality associated ...

Therapeutic strategies and management of desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma: two case reports and literature overview [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Desmoplastic infantile gangliogliomas (DIG) are rare cerebral glioneural tumors usually occurring in early childhood. DIGs are generally benign although rare cases with poor outcome are known.

Neuropsychological correlations with fornix and hippocampus in temporal lobe epilepsy demonstrated with diffusion tensor imaging

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Memory dysfunction is a common disabling comorbidity in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and hippocampal sclerosis (HS). While bilateral fornix diffusion abnormalities have been reported in TLE using diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), the impact of fornix pathology on cognitive outcomes remains unclear.

Structural brain imaging biomarkers for predicting seizure recurrence after a first unprovoked seizure

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Predicting seizure recurrence following a first unprovoked seizure (FUS) remains a significant clinical challenge, especially when routine clinical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and EEG do not reveal abnormalities diagnostic of epilepsy.
