Effect of time to palliative epilepsy surgery on outcomes
Abstract Objective Epilepsy duration is a modifiable risk factor in the outcome of definitive epilepsy surgery; however, an analogous effect in palliative procedures has not been shown. We reviewed the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Database data for an association between epilepsy duration and seizure reduction in palliative procedures.

Schizophrenia-like psychosis arising de novo following a temporal lobectomy: timing and risk factors
Objectives: To clarify risk factors for the development of schizophrenia-like psychotic disorders following temporal lobectomy, and to explore the possibility that the early postoperative period is a time of high risk for the onset of such chronic ...

Abstract Objective Epileptic spasms (ES) in children carry a high risk of neurodevelopmental delay, yet predictors of long‐term surgical outcome remain incompletely defined. This study aimed to evaluate seizure outcomes following epilepsy surgery and to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative recurrence.

Abstract Objective Bilateral hippocampal compromise in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) substantially increases the risk of significant adverse memory outcomes following unilateral anterior temporal lobectomy and may contraindicate surgery. The Spatial Learning Task (SLT) of Lhermitte and Signoret (1972) is a simple object–location arbitrary associative ...

Visual pattern memory after unilateral anterior temporal lobectomy
Memory for visual patterns was examined in 131 patients with unilateral temporal- or frontal-lobe excisions and 32 normal control subjects. A deficit in short-term memory for matrices of increasing complexity was exhibited by the right frontal-lobe group.
