The Temporal Lobe as a Symptomatogenic Zone in Medial Parietal Lobe Epilepsy [PDF]
Some surgical failures after temporal lobe epilepsy surgery may be due to the presence of an extratemporal epileptogenic zone. Of particular interest is the medial parietal lobe due to its robust connectivity with mesial temporal structures.

Interictal magnetoencephalography in parietal lobe epilepsy – Comparison of equivalent current dipole and beamformer (SAMepi) analysis [PDF]
Objective: To evaluate a novel analysis method (SAMepi) in the localization of interictal epileptiform magnetoencephalographic (MEG) activity in parietal lobe epilepsy (PLE) patients in comparison with equivalent current dipole (ECD) analysis.

Polymorphic low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young and treatment of epilepsy: a case report [PDF]
BackgroundPolymorphic low-grade neuroepithelial tumor of the young (PLNTY) is a rare central nervous system tumor. Clinical manifestations often start with seizures, and the lesions are often located in the superficial parts of the cerebral hemisphere ...

Refractory Lesional Parietal Lobe Epilepsy: Clinical, Electroencephalographic and Neurodiagnostic Findings. [PDF]
Specialized centers, in the management and surgical treatment of medically refractory epilepsy, emphasize the importance of differentiating the varieties of localization related epilepsies. There has been considerable recent interest in temporal and frontal lobe epileptic syndromes and less attention has been paid to parietal and occipital lobe ...

Cases with parietal and occipital lobe epilepsies [PDF]
Background For seizures emerging from the posterior cortex it can be a challenge to differentiate if they belong to temporal, parietal or occipital epilepsies. Sensoric auras like visual phenomena may occur in all of these focal epilepsies.

Parietal Lobe Epilepsy Associated With 2q13 Duplication: Expanding the Neurogenetic Spectrum. [PDF]
Copy number variations (CNVs) involving the 2q13 region have been associated with a wide range of phenotypes, including developmental delay, dysmorphic features, hypotonia, and congenital heart defects. However, parietal lobe epilepsy has not yet been reported in association with 2q13 duplication.

The neuropsychological profile of parietal and occipital lobe epilepsy
Despite the extensive body of research in clinical neurology on the functional organization of posterior cortices, parietal and occipital lobe epilepsy (PLE and OLE) have not as yet received the attention afforded frontal and temporal lobe epilepsy (FLE and TLE), perhaps due to their low prevalence.

Precuneus-Dominant Degeneration of Parietal Lobe Is at Risk of Epilepsy in Mild Alzheimer's Disease [PDF]
Introduction: Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the leading cause of cognitive decline. Epilepsy is a frequent comorbid condition of AD. While previous studies analyzed the risk factors of AD-related epileptic seizures, we still lack biomarkers of epilepsy in ...

Due to extensive connectivity of the parietal lobe, non‐lesional drug‐resistant (DRE) parietal lobe epilepsies (PLEs) are difficult to localize and often imitate other epilepsies.

Cardiogenic cerebral infarction in the parietal lobe predicts the development of post-stroke epilepsy [PDF]
Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is a major late complication of cardioembolic cerebral infarction. However, few studies have examined the epileptogenicity and characteristics of first-occurrence cardioembolic cerebral infarctions.This retrospective study included 93 consecutive patients with old cardioembolic cerebral infarctions who were classified into ...
