Surgical treatment of focal symptomatic refractory status epilepticus with and without invasive EEG

Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2015
Purpose: Neurosurgery appears to be a reasonable alternative in carefully selected patients with refractory status epilepticus (RSE) and super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE).

New onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) versus refractory status epilepticus not meeting NORSE criteria: A comparative clinical and electroencephalography‐based study

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective New onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is a rare, severe presentation of refractory status epilepticus (RSE), with approximately half of cases cryptogenic NORSE (c‐NORSE). We compared electroencephalographic (EEG) findings alongside clinical features between NORSE and RSE not meeting NORSE criteria to better understand ...

Hippocampal network activity changes during early epileptogenesis predict subsequent epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite decades of research, the circuit mechanisms that underlie focal epileptogenesis remain incompletely understood. In this study, we aimed to characterize the changes in hippocampal network activity induced by an epileptogenic insult.

Intensive care management of status epilepticus

Journal of Neuroanaesthesiology and Critical Care, 2016
Status epilepticus (SE) is a life-threatening neurological emergency that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment. SE may be classified into convulsive and non-convulsive types, based on the presence of rhythmic jerking of the extremities.

Refining diagnostic boundaries and electroclinical profiles of Lennox–Gastaut syndrome through unsupervised clustering

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Lennox–Gastaut syndrome (LGS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy defined by polymorphic seizures, intellectual disability (ID), and characteristic electroencephalographic (EEG) patterns. The applicability and biological validity of current electroclinical criteria remain debated.

Perils and progress in epilepsy surgery utilization: Twenty‐five years later

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract More than 25 years have passed since the first randomized controlled trial (RCT) established that surgery is superior to continued anti‐seizure medication (ASM) for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy, and nearly as long since a joint practice parameter urged that appropriate surgical candidates be referred to a specialized center for ...

Monthly or menstrual? A scoping review of catamenial epilepsy and non‐menstrual seizure rhythms

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Despite the reported high prevalence of catamenial epilepsy (CE), the condition remains poorly defined, with lack of consensus on what entails a menstrual‐related seizure exacerbation. Emerging evidence of multiday cycles of seizure activity, including about‐monthly cycles, present in both men and women, further confound the ...

Surgical management of status epilepticus: A systematic review

Epilepsia Open
Status Epilepticus (SE), unresponsive to medical management, is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Surgical management is typically considered in these refractory cases. The best surgical approach for affected patients remains unclear; however,

Febrile Infection-Related Epilepsy Syndrome (FIRES), a possible cause of super-refractory status epilepticus. Case report.

Case Reports, 2018
Introduction: Super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE) is a pathology that affects the neuronal environment depending on the types of seizure and their duration. Case presentation.
