Transcallosal resection of hypothalamic hamartomas in patients with intractable epilepsy.
A variety of surgical treatments for intractable epilepsy with hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) are described, although most are derived from limited patient experience gathered from several centres. We describe the results of transcallosal resection of HH in 29 consecutive patients undergoing surgery at one centre. Twenty-nine patients aged 4-23 years (mean 10 years) underwent HH surgery with a min...
متن کاملGelastic epilepsy: Beyond hypothalamic hamartomas
Gelastic epilepsy or laughing seizures have been historically related to children with hypothalamic hamartomas. We report three adult patients who had gelastic epilepsy, defined as the presence of seizures with a prominent laugh component, including brain imaging, surface/invasive electroencephalography, positron emission tomography, and medical/surgical outcomes. None of the patients had hamar...
متن کاملEpilepsy syndromes associated with hypothalamic hamartomas
PURPOSE Hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) related epilepsy presents with gelastic seizures (GS), other seizure types and cognitive deterioration. Although seizure origin in GS has been well established, non-GS are poorly characterized. Their relationship with the HH and cognitive deterioration remains poorly understood. We analyzed seizure type, spread pattern in non-GS and their relationship with th...
متن کاملThe endocrinology of hypothalamic hamartoma surgery for intractable epilepsy.
Intractable epilepsy has replaced central precocious puberty (CPP) as the main indication for surgery in patients with hypothalamic hamartoma (HH). However, concern about endocrine complications and the paucity of published endocrine data may dissuade clinicians from recommending HH surgery. We report the preoperative endocrine status and postoperative endocrine findings of patients undergoing ...
متن کاملResection planning in extratemporal epilepsy surgery using 3D multimodality imaging and intraoperative MRI
Surgical resection in non-lesional, extratemporal epilepsy, informed by stereoEEG recordings, is challenging. There are no clear borders of resection, and the surgeon is often operating in deep areas of the brain that are difficult to access. We present a technical note where 3D multimodality image integration in EpiNavTM is used to build a planned resection model, based on a previous intracran...
