Case Report: Subtotal Hemispherotomy Modulates the Epileptic Spasms in Aicardi Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2021
The mechanism of epileptic spasms (ES) in Aicardi syndrome (AS) remains obscure. We compared intraoperative high-frequency oscillations (HFOs) and phase-amplitude coupling (PAC) before and after subtotal hemispherotomy in a 3-month-old girl with drug ...
