Radiofrequency thermocoagulation of the seizure‐onset zone during stereoelectroencephalography [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2017
SummaryObjectiveTo assess long‐term outcome and identify prognostic factors of radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFTC) following stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) explorations in particularly complex cases of focal epilepsy.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the medical charts, video‐SEEGrecordings, and outcomes for 23 patients (aged 6–53 years ...

Management of trigeminal neuralgia by radiofrequency thermocoagulation

Alexandria Journal of Medicine, 2011
Introduction: The trigeminal neuralgia (TN) which is resistant to medical treatment has been benefited from many surgical techniques. Opinions differ regarding the best surgical treatment.Objective: This study was done to evaluate the functional results of percutaneous radiofrequency thermocoagulation of trigeminal nerve in a consecutive series of 312 ...

Cortical stimulation predicts language decline following SEEG radiofrequency thermocoagulation

Brain
Abstract Stereo-EEG (SEEG) cortical stimulation enables individualized mapping of language networks. Regions associated with induced language deficits are marked as ‘language-positive’ and considered important in supporting function. It remains unclear, however, whether small lesions in ‘language-positive’ sites created by radiofrequency

Stereotactic radiofrequency thermocoagulation for giant hypothalamic hamartoma [PDF]

Journal of Neurosurgery, 2016
OBJECTIVE The authors undertook this study to validate the feasibility and safety of stereotactic radiofrequency thermocoagulation (SRT) for the surgical treatment of giant hypothalamic hamartoma (HH). METHODS Of the 109 patients who underwent SRT for hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) at the authors' institution between 1997 and 2013, 16 patients (9 female,

Radiofrequency thermocoagulation for the treatment of trigeminal neuralgia

Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2021
Although microvascular decompression (MVD) should be considered as the first-line treatment for classic trigeminal neuralgia (TN) owing to neurovascular compression of the trigeminal nerve, an increasing number of surgeons prefer radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RFT).

Stereoelectroencephalography-guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation in drug-resistant focal epilepsy [PDF]

Annals of Translational Medicine, 2022
Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) has become a common diagnostic method in epilepsy surgery and is found to be safe for a wide range of clinical applications. SEEG combined with radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RF-TC) not only reveals the seizure onset zone by hypothesis, but also acts as a treatment option without any additional cost to ...

Trigeminal neuralgia: new classification and diagnostic grading for practice and research [PDF]

, 2016
Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is an exemplary condition of neuropathic facial pain. However, formally classifying TN as neuropathic pain based on the grading system of the International Association for the Study of Pain is complicated by the requirement of ...

Successful annuloplasty using the cone-beam computed tomography-assisted radiofrequency thermocoagulation system in a patient with severe vertebral deformity: a case report

JA Clinical Reports, 2022
Background Complex anatomical features are challenging for minimally invasive intradiscal therapy owing to insufficient visualization for accurate needle advancement. We report the case of a patient with dysraphic vertebral pathologies who presented with
