Temporal lobe white matter pathways: clinical and anatomical examination related to surgery of drug-resistant structural focal epilepsy

Эпилепсия и пароксизмальные состояния, 2022
Background. Detected temporal lobe focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) often results in developing drug-resistant epilepsy requiring surgical treatment. In turn, temporal lobectomy, despite its high efficiency, can cause a certain deficit associated with ...

Temporal encephalocele: An epileptogenic focus confirmed by direct intracranial electroencephalography

Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2023
Several studies have suggested the epileptogenic potential of temporal encephaloceles. However, there is limited literature describing the results of intracranial EEG monitoring for patients with temporal encephaloceles.

Disabling amnestic syndrome following stereotactic laser ablation of a hypothalamic hamartoma in a patient with a prior temporal lobectomy

Epilepsy and Behavior Case Reports, 2015
A 19-year-old man with cortical dysplasia and intractable focal seizures underwent a right temporal lobectomy. A hypothalamic hamartoma was subsequently recognized, and he then underwent MRI-guided stereotactic laser ablation. Unfortunately, he sustained

Characterizing the phenotype of drug-resistant childhood epilepsy associated with leukemia: A case series

Epilepsy & Behavior Reports, 2021
Children with leukemia are at risk for epilepsy due to primary disease or neurotoxic therapies. We describe the phenotypes of drug-resistant epilepsy in 10 children with history of leukemia.Of 10 cases, 6 had features of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, and 4 ...

Cardiac surgery in a patient with implanted vagal nerve stimulator

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2018
The prevalence of epilepsy worldwide is around 0.5%–2% of the population. Antiepileptic medications are the first line of treatment in most of the cases but approximately 25%–30% epilepsy patients are refractory to the single or combination therapy.

Epilepsy, Temporal Lobe Sclerosis and Tumors

Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1988
Sixteen of 48 children undergoing temporal lobectomy for temporal lobe epilepsy at the Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Ontario, were found to have tumors (12 patients), vascular malformations (3), and arachnoid cyst (1).

Defining Meyer's loop-temporal lobe resections, visual field deficits and diffusion tensor tractography

, 2009
Anterior temporal lobe resection is often complicated by superior quadrantic visual field deficits (VFDs). In some cases this can be severe enough to prohibit driving, even if a patient is free of seizures.

The Tale of the Residual Tail: Insights From Continuous Intracranial Monitoring From Post‐Hippocampectomy Dynamics

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Subtotal hippocampal resection can leave residual hippocampal tissue, yet the immediate postoperative electrophysiologic evolution of such remnants is unknown. We describe a patient with drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy in whom a hippocampal remnant was continuously monitored using a responsive neurostimulator (RNS) following subtotal ...

Converging language streams in the human temporal lobe

, 2006
There is general agreement that, after initial processing in unimodal sensory cortex, the processing pathways for spoken and written language converge to access verbal meaning.
