A guide to neuromodulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromodulation is approved for the treatment of drug‐resistant epilepsy. It has been increasingly utilized over the past two decades with the approval of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS) in addition to vagus nerve stimulation (VNS)—particularly in patients who are not deemed to be good resective surgical ...

Spectral entropy variability of intraoperative electrocorticography predicts outcome after epilepsy surgery in people with focal cortical dysplasia

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy surgery in people with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) requires accurate removal of all epileptogenic tissue, and outcome is difficult to predict. We explored whether spectral entropy, a fast computable electroencephalographic (EEG) feature, could estimate epileptic activity in intraoperative electrocorticography (ioECoG) and

Decoding epilepsy's molecular blueprint: Machine learning unravels transcriptomic subtypes and regulatory networks

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) affects approximately one‐third of patients with epilepsy. The molecular heterogeneity underlying DRE remains poorly defined, largely due to limited access to resected brain tissue and substantial genetic diversity.

Full median sternotomy approach for treatment of upper thoracic vertebral tuberculosis in a developing country: case report and short literature review

The Pan African Medical Journal, 2017
Direct anterior approach to the cervicothoracic spine (C7-T4) poses a technical challenge in neurosurgery, due to the presence of important neurovascular structures anterior to the cervicothoracic junction (CTJ).

Graded extent of hippocampal resection is related to neuropsychological outcomes in temporal lobe epilepsy surgery

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Surgical resection for epilepsy seeks to maximize seizure freedom while minimizing new neurocognitive impairments. Tailored resections guided by anatomoelectroclinical (AEC) hypotheses offer the possibility of sparing parts of the hippocampus.
