Localizing value of epileptic visual auras [PDF]
Brain, 2000 It is difficult to differentiate between seizures of occipital or temporal lobe origin in patients with focal epileptic seizures associated with visual aura. These are often suspected to originate from the visual cortex, which causes reluctance to propose resection as treatment for the affected patient.

Sustained visual cortex hyperexcitability in migraine with persistent visual aura. [PDF]
Brain, 2011 Persistent aura without infarction, a rare migraine disorder, is defined by aura symptoms that persist for >1 week without radiological evidence of cerebral infarction. To unveil its pathophysiological mechanisms, this study used magnetoencephalography to characterize the visual cortex excitability in persistent aura by comparison with episodic and ...
