Hippocampal Seizure‐Related Burden is Associated with Accelerated Long‐Term Forgetting in Focal Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Memory impairment is a frequent comorbidity of focal epilepsy, incompletely explained by seizure frequency or structural pathology. Ictal and postictal hippocampal dysfunction disrupt memory processes, but their cumulative impact remains poorly quantified.

Localizing value of cutaneous ictal phenomena: A systematic review

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Clinical observation of autonomic signs during seizures can aid in localizing the epileptogenic zone (EZ). We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to evaluate the localizing value of ictal cutaneous phenomena—piloerection, sweating, pallor, and flushing—in focal epilepsy and their relevance to presurgical evaluation ...

Preoperative limbic cortical thinning in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy surgical candidates is associated with pre‐existing and de novo postoperative depression

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Depression is common in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (mTLE), but its neuroanatomical basis—and overlap with major depressive disorder (MDD)—remains poorly defined. We investigated whether the cortical and subcortical alterations reported in MDD are also present in mTLE and leveraged the frequent occurrence of depression after ...

Ependymoma with Intraorbital Extracerebral Recurrence: Case Report

open access: yesBrazilian Neurosurgery, 2019
Ependymomas are rare neuroepithelial tumors that originate from a type of glial cell called ependymal cell. In general, they correspond to ∼ 1.2 to 7.8% of all intracranial neoplasms, and to ∼ 2 to 6% of all gliomas. Although it corresponds only to ∼2 to

Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

Neoplasm of mixed mesenchymal and neuroepithelial origin: liposarcomatous meningioma combined with gliomas [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 1973
A case is reported of an intracranial neoplasm of mixed mesenchymal and neuroepithelial (glial) origin occurring in the parieto-parasagittal region of the brain of a 19 year old man. A meningioma with liposarcomatous and psammomatous components comprised the mesenchymal part of the combined tumour.

[11C]-Methionine PET: dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumours compared with other epileptogenic brain neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2005
Brain tumours responsible for longstanding partial epilepsy are characterised by a high prevalence of dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumour (DNT), whose natural evolution is much more benign than that of gliomas. The preoperative diagnosis of DNT, which is not yet feasible on the basis of available clinical and imaging data, would help optimise the ...

Localizing value of ecstatic phenomenon in epilepsy surgery: A systematic review

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective A systematic review was conducted to synthesize current anatomo‐clinical correlations of ecstatic symptoms in focal epilepsy, aiming to provide evidence‐based guidance for interpreting this ictal semiology during presurgical evaluation.

Different immunohistochemical levels of Hsp60 and Hsp70 in a subset of brain tumors and putative role of Hsp60 in neuroepithelial tumorigenesis

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Histochemistry, 2013
In this work we analysed, by immunohistochemistry, a series of brain tumors to detect the levels and cellular distribution of Hsp60 and Hsp70. We found that Hsp60 levels were significantly higher than those of Hsp70 in neuroepithelial tumors, while ...

Epileptogenic lesions in the Australian epilepsy project: A harmonized 3‐T magnetic resonance imaging protocol and its diagnostic yield

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Detection of epilepsy‐causing structural brain lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is critical for diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment planning in people with epilepsy. We aimed to establish an epilepsy‐directed multisite harmonized 3‐T MRI acquisition protocol for the Australian Epilepsy Project (AEP) and describe the ...
