sEEG‐guided responsive neurostimulation to treat neocortical epilepsy: A multicenter retrospective study of the efficacy and safety of depth electrode‐mediated neuromodulation

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Pivotal trials have established the effectiveness of the Responsive Neurostimulation System (RNS® System) in treating focal epilepsy. In clinical trials, depth leads were primarily used to treat mesial temporal seizure onsets while cortical strip leads were used to treat neocortical seizure onsets.

Centromedian nucleus targeting in the pediatric population treated with thalamic responsive neurostimulation for drug‐resistant epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract The management of drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) in the pediatric population using neurostimulation of the centromedian (CM) nucleus of the thalamus (CMN) has been reported to be effective and safe. We present a case series of pediatric patients treated with responsive neurostimulation (RNS) and report on contact localization in relation to ...

Vagus nerve stimulation: current concepts

open access: yesNeurosurgical Focus, 2008
Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has become an accepted treatment option for pharmacologically resistant epilepsy. Although initially approved for adults, it increasingly has gained acceptance in children. In this article the author reviews the current state of knowledge of VNS therapy and discusses its potential utility.

Stiripentol use in Dravet syndrome patients in the USA: Results of a real‐world study

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Dravet syndrome (DS) is a severe developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with a high seizure burden and mortality risk. Stiripentol, one of the first DS‐specific therapies, received FDA approval in 2018 but its real‐world use and impact post‐approval in the USA remain insufficiently characterized.

Ultra‐refractory epilepsy: The newly described entity

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) is defined as the failure of two antiseizure medications (ASMs) to achieve complete seizure control, affecting approximately 30% of epilepsy patients. In some cases, additional ASMs and surgical approaches are also unsuccessful.

Tiagabine-induced encephalopathy suppressed by vagus nerve stimulation: A case report

open access: yesEpilepsy & Behavior Reports
Tiagabine has been associated with reports of status epilepticus as well as encephalopathy, even when used within therapeutic doses. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) has been used successfully to reduce seizure frequency in the outpatient setting as well as
