متن کاملDisentangling Hippocampal Shape Anomalies in Epilepsy
Drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and epileptic syndromes related to malformations of cortical development (MCD) are associated with complex hippocampal morphology. The contribution of volume and position to the overall hippocampal shape in these conditions has not been studied. We propose a surface-based framework to localize volume changes through measurement of Jacobian determinant...

While there is still controversy whether there is any cognitive deterioration in most children, it has been increasingly recognized that, while the prognosis for seizure remissi...

متن کاملRemission of Childhood-onset Epilepsy
Investigators from the Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago, Chicago IL and the Yale School of Medicine, New Haven, CT have conducted a prospective cohort study of 613 children with newly diagnosed epilepsy to evaluate the occurrence of complete remission and predictive factors. Of the 613 patients recruited, 516 were followed for greater than 10 years and of those, 328 (63.5%...
