Objective Approximately 20%–30% of mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) patients got unfavorable seizure control after surgery, and there was a discrepancy about the reasons for the surgical failure.

A implantação de eletrodos de profundidade na era da cirurgia guiada por imagem [PDF]
The advent of modern image-guided surgery has revolutionized depth electrode implantation techniques. Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), introduced by Talairach in the 1950s, is an invasive method for three-dimensional analysis on the epileptogenic ...

The role of epidemic spreading in seizure dynamics and epilepsy surgery
Epilepsy surgery is the treatment of choice for drug-resistant epilepsy patients, but only leads to seizure freedom for roughly two in three patients. To address this problem, we designed a patient-specific epilepsy surgery model combining large-scale ...

A case of clinical worsening after stereo-electroencephalographic-guided radiofrequency thermocoagulation in a patient with polymicrogyria [PDF]
: Radiofrequency thermocoagulation (RF-TC) is a wide-used procedure for drug-resistant epilepsy. The technique is considered safe with an overall risk of 1.1% of permanent complications, mainly focal neurological deficits. We report the case of a patient

Trends and hotspots of stereoelectroencephalogram from 2002 to 2023: a bibliometric analysis
BackgroundStereoelectroencephalography (SEEG), as a minimally invasive method that can stably collect intracranial electroencephalographic information over long periods, has increasingly been applied in the diagnosis and treatment of intractable epilepsy

Mapping the epileptic brain with EEG dynamical connectivity: established methods and novel approaches [PDF]
Several algorithms rooted in statistical physics, mathematics and machine learning are used to analyze neuroimaging data from patients suffering from epilepsy, with the main goals of localizing the brain region where the seizure originates from and of ...
