Impaired Social Cognition in Epilepsy: A Review of What We Have Learnt From Neuroimaging Studies

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: Social cognition refers to specific mental processes that subserve social interaction. Impaired social cognition has been increasingly reported in patients with epilepsy and negatively affects overall quality of life (QOL).

Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Syndrome: An Updated Overview [PDF]

, 2015
Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is the most common form of partial epilepsy in young adults and also the most frequent type of epilepsy reported in surgical series worldwide. Mesial temporal lobe sclerosis (MTS) is the major underlying cause of MTLE,

Amygdala enlargement occurs in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy and hippocampal sclerosis with early epilepsy onset

, 2015
Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo (FAPESP)Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) associated with hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is considered an electroclinical syndrome, and there is a debate whether it is a unique disease or an entity with

Contralateral language network integration predicts and protects against naming decline after temporal lobe resection

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Anterior temporal lobe resection (ATLR) is an effective treatment for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) but carries a substantial risk of language impairment, particularly in naming. Understanding and predicting the impact of ATLR on language functions remains a major clinical challenge.

Automated hippocampal segmentation in patients with epilepsy: Available free online

, 2013
Hippocampal sclerosis, a common cause of refractory focal epilepsy, requires hippocampal volumetry for accurate diagnosis and surgical planning. Manual segmentation is time-consuming and subject to interrater/intrarater variability.

Gamma Knife Radiosurgery for Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy [PDF]

, 2011
Many patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy continue to have seizures despite medical therapy. For these patients, one recourse is surgical resection of the mesial temporal lobe, with its attendant risks.

Auras in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and mesial temporal sclerosis

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2016
We investigated auras in patients with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS). We also investigated the clinical differences between patients with MTS and abdominal auras and those with MTS and non-mesial temporal auras.

Interictal and seizure‐onset scalp electroencephalographic patterns in malformations of cortical development

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) are a frequent cause of drug‐resistant epilepsy and a common indication for resective epilepsy surgery. As magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lacks sensitivity for subtle MCDs, supplemental diagnostic tools are needed.
