Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Surgery Failures: A Review
Patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) are refractory to antiepileptic drugs in about 30% of cases. Surgical treatment has been shown to be beneficial for the selected patients but fails to provide a seizure-free outcome in 20-30% of TLE patients. Several reasons have been identified to explain these surgical failures. This paper will address the five most common causes of TLE surgery failu...

متن کاملThe Determiners of Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Surgery Outcome in a Developing Country
Background: Epilepsy surgery has become a successful treatment option for patients with drug-resistant epilepsies. Objectives: This study aimed to assess temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) surgery outcome and its association with epilepsy duration, the presence of pre-surgical generalized tonic-clonic seizure (GTCS), and brain MRI findings. Materials & Methods: This retrospective study was perfo...
متن کاملReply: Temporal plus epilepsy is a major determinant of temporal lobe surgery failures.
Reasons for failed temporal lobe epilepsy surgery remain unclear. Temporal plus epilepsy, characterized by a primary temporal lobe epileptogenic zone extending to neighboured regions, might account for a yet unknown proportion of these failures. In this study all patients from two epilepsy surgery programmes who fulfilled the following criteria were included: (i) operated from an anterior tempo...
متن کاملBrain Atrophy Following Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Surgery
Introduction Current understanding of the secondary effects of brain surgery, both conventional and irradiative, is largely limited to clinical observations. Studies of post-operative imaging data have mainly concentrated on brain atrophy following radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy [ 1,2]. We have investigated the effect of conventional surgery on the unresected brain tissue based on the compari...
