Parietal Lobe Epilepsy: Surgical Treatment and Outcome

Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 2004
<i>Objective:</i> Parietal lobe epilepsy (PLE) is neither common nor easily diagnosed because of its variable clinical features. To elucidate its characteristics and surgical outcome, the authors reviewed their surgical experiences. <i>Methods:</i> Between September 1994 and August 2001, 38 patients with PLE received surgical ...

Surgical treatment of parietal lobe epilepsy.

Journal of neurosurgery, 2009
Parietal lobe epilepsy (PLE) accounts for a small percentage of extratemporal epilepsies, and only a few and mostly smaller series have been reported. Preoperative findings, surgical strategies, pathological bases, and postoperative outcomes for PLE remain to be elucidated.Patients with PLE were identified by screening a prospective epilepsy surgery ...

Parietal lobe epilepsy

Neurology, 1994
We studied clinical and ictal single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) features in 14 patients with parietal lobe epilepsy, nine of whom had structural parietal lobe lesions. Thirteen patients had simple partial seizures of somatosensory (eight), psychic (four), and motor (nine) types. Complex partial seizures (CPS) occurred in seven patients;

Parietal lobe epilepsy: the great imitator among focal epilepsies

Epileptic Disorders, 2012
ABSTRACTAim. Comprising large areas of association cortex, the parietal lobe is part of an extensive synaptic network elaborately intertwined with other brain regions. We hypothesize that such widespread projections are responsible for producing inaccurate localisation readings on scalp EEG and clinical semiology in patients with parietal lobe ...

Parietal lobe epilepsy: Diagnostic considerations and results of surgery

Annals of Neurology, 1992
AbstractEleven patients, evaluated between 1983 and 1988, with parietal lobe seizure origin as determined by circumscribed lesion detection in all and successful surgery in 10, were retrospectively evaluated in terms of clinical seizure characteristics and electroencephalographic (EEG) findings. Seven of 11 patients reported auras prior to seizures. In

Parietal lobe epilepsy.

Advances in neurology, 2001
When symptoms such as lateralized paresthesias or pain occur prominently and early in partial seizures, parietal lobe seizure origin should be suspected. Most patients with parietal lobe seizures, however, have no symptoms or signs suggesting the parietal lobe.

F121. Patterns of propagation in parietal lobe epilepsy

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2018
Introduction Parietal lobe epilepsy accounts for about 5% of all the focal epilepsies. Seizures of the parietal lobe origin can be difficult to diagnose because of the diverse ictal manifestations. Moreover, the ictal semiology may be related to the propagation from the epileptogenic zone (EZ) to other areas of the brain, such as the motor cortex or ...

Drug‐resistant parietal lobe epilepsy: clinical manifestations and surgery outcome

Epileptic Disorders, 2017
AbstractAim. We reviewed a large surgical cohort to investigate the clinical manifestations, EEG and neuroimaging findings, and postoperative seizure outcome in patients with drug‐resistant parietal lobe epilepsy (PLE).Methods. All drug‐resistant PLE patients, who were investigated for epilepsy surgery at Jefferson Comprehensive Epilepsy Center between

Asymmetric tonic seizures with bilateral parietal lesions resembling frontal lobe epilepsy

Epileptic Disorders, 2001
ABSTRACT We performed long‐term video/ EEG monitoring and a single photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) study to clarify generating mechanism of bilateral tonic motor seizures resembling seizures generated by the supplementary motor area (SMA), in patients with bilateral parietal lesions.

Surgical management of parietal lobe epilepsy.

Advances in neurology, 2003
Parietal lobe seizure foci are difficult to localize unless there is an MRI lesion or contralateral sensory aura. Rapid network projection often makes scalp EEG and semiology misleading. However, seizure control can be achieved with reasonable success when concordant information guides the physician to a parietal ictal onset. Perhaps the most important
