Time-Frequency Fingerprint Analysis in SEEG Source-Space to Identify the Epileptogenic Zone. [PDF]
ABSTRACT This case study highlights the application of seizure fingerprint analysis in the source‐space of stereo‐EEG (SEEG) data to accurately localize the epileptogenic zone (EZ) in patients with complex cortical malformations. A 25‐year‐old female with extensive bilateral perisylvian polymicrogyria (PMG) presented with intractable focal seizures ...

Emergent responsive neurostimulation in pediatric super-refractory epilepsia partialis continua. [PDF]
Abstract Focal status epilepticus, particularly the motor variant of epilepsia partialis continua (EPC), is a rare condition characterized by near‐continuous, chronic focal motor seizures, and associated with poor outcomes. Medications, including anesthetics, are often unsuccessful. Surgical resection can result in motor deficits. We report a medically
