Hemimegalencephaly - A Case for Hemispherectomy?
Neuropediatrics, 1985Two infants are described with intractable, drug-resistant seizures from birth associated with an enlarged cerebral hemisphere. The first died at sixteen months and demonstrated arrested head growth. Histology of the abnormal hemisphere showed disturbed cortical architecture, and subcortical heterotopias with multinucleate cells resembling tuberous ...

Functional Hemispherectomy in Children
Neuropediatrics, 1993Functional hemispherectomy, indicated for the control of pharmacologically refractory seizures, has been used at the Montreal Neurological Hospital since 1974. We have used this technique in 18 children suffering from intractable seizures secondary to conditions such as infantile hemiplegia, chronic encephalitis, head trauma, cerebrovascular accident ...

Hemispherectomy and Hemithalamectomy in Man
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1962The thalamus is a large and well-differentiated nuclear mass and many of its connections have been worked out anatomically. Primarily, it has been considered to be the end station of most of the sensory systems of the body, being the rccipient of at least seven afferent tracts. Despite this, in cases of tmnors originating in the thalamus, sensory signs

Objective: Hemispherectomies are performed less frequently in adults and knowledge about these patients and results for functional hemispherectomies are less well-known. We therefore reviewed our database for adult hemispherectomy patients with the intent to describe the patient group and outcome. [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]

Neurology, 2010
Cerebral hemispherectomy has become a routine surgical procedure for control of intractable seizures, especially in young patients at risk for epileptic encephalopathies. Pediatric centers report that 20%–40% of patients undergoing surgery have a hemispherectomy.1,2 Despite preexisting neurologic deficits, many patients achieve substantial cognitive ...
