Cognitive outcome after left functional hemispherectomy on dominant hemisphere in patients with Rasmussen encephalitis: beyond the myth of aphasia. Patient series. [PDF]

J Neurosurg Case Lessons, 2022
BACKGROUND Rasmussen encephalitis is a rare chronic neurological pathology frequently treated with functional hemispherectomy (or hemispherotomy). This surgical procedure frees patients of their severe epilepsy associated with the disease but may induce ...

The dynamics of brain T cell populations during the course of rasmussen encephalitis: from expansion to exhaustion. [PDF]

J Neuroinflammation
Rasmussen Encephalitis (RE) is a chronic, unilateral epileptic disorder mostly found in children. Neuropathologically, it is characterized by T lymphocyte infiltration targeting neurons and leading to microglia activation, astrogliosis, and cortical ...

Rasmussen encephalitis without atrophy and increased ¹¹C-methionine PET uptake mimicking glioma: A case report. [PDF]

Neuroradiol J
Diagnosing Rasmussen encephalitis presents a significant challenge when cortical atrophy is absent on MRI. We present a case of Rasmussen encephalitis in a 13-year-old boy with lack of atrophy and imaging features mimicking glioma, including increased ...

Longitudinal PET and MRI Evaluation in Late Onset Rasmussen Encephalitis: A Series of Three Cases. [PDF]

Eur J Neurol
Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is a rare, chronic, neurological disorder characterized by progressive focal epilepsy and hemispheric atrophy. Late‐onset RE poses diagnostic challenges due to atypical clinical features and nonspecific early MRI findings.

The Clinical Utility of Surgical Histopathology in Predicting Seizure Outcomes in Patients with Rasmussen Encephalitis Undergoing Hemispherectomy. [PDF]

World Neurosurg, 2022
OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between the severity of pathology and seizure outcomes in patients who underwent hemispherectomy for Rasmussen Encephalitis, and to investigate which clinical factors correlated with severity of pathology ...
