Significance of Polyspikes on Electroencephalography in Children with Focal Epilepsy [PDF]
Purpose Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders in both adults and children. After detailed history-taking, electroencephalography (EEG) is the most important investigation in the evaluation of epilepsy patients.

Malformations of Cortical Development
AbstractStructural abnormalities of the brain are increasingly recognized in patients that suffer from pharmacoresistant focal epilepsies by applying high‐resolution imaging techniques. In many of these patients, epilepsy surgery results in control of seizures.

Focal Cortical Dysplasia in Pediatric Epilepsy [PDF]
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) is the most common cause of intractable focal epilepsy in children undergoing epilepsy surgery. In these patients, seizures usually develop in early childhood and are often explosive from their onset. This review summarizes

Focal cortical dysplasia: Updates
Focal cortical dysplasias (FCDs) represent the third most frequent cause of drug-resistant focal epilepsy in adults (after hippocampal sclerosis and tumours) submitted to surgery, and the most common in the pediatric age group.

Malformations of Cortical Development [PDF]
Malformations of cortical development (MCD) are increasingly recognized as an important cause of epilepsy and developmental delay. MCD encompass a wide spectrum of disorders with various underlying genetic etiologies and clinical manifestations. High resolution imaging has dramatically improved our recognition of MCD.This review will provide a brief ...

Epilepsy with SLC35A2 Brain Somatic Mutations in Mild Malformation of Cortical Development with Oligodendroglial Hyperplasia in Epilepsy (MOGHE) [PDF]
Purpose This study presents the characteristics of patients with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy (MOGHE) with SLC35A2 somatic variants in the brain who underwent epilepsy surgery and showed clinical
