Non epileptogenic Rasmussen`s encephalitis

HMGB1-TLR Signaling in Rasmussens’ Encephalitis

Rasmussen’s encephalitis is neurological disorder of childhood characterized by uni-hemispheric inflammation, intractable focal epilepsy and progressive cognitive and neurological deficits. Currently, the pathogenesis of Rasmussen’s encephalitis is still enigmatic and hemispherectomy is the only effective method to control the seizures associated with Rasmussen’s encephalitis. Recently data ind...

Longitudinal study of MRS metabolites in Rasmussens encephalitis

Long-range temporal correlations in epileptogenic and non-epileptogenic human hippocampus.

Epileptogenic human hippocampus generates spontaneous energy fluctuations with a wide range of amplitude and temporal variation, which are often assumed to be entirely random. However, the temporal dynamics of these fluctuations are poorly understood, and the question of whether they exhibit persistent long-range temporal correlations (LRTC) remains unanswered. In this paper we use detrended fl...

Non-paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis

Autoimmune-mediated encephalitis may occur as a paraneoplastic or as a nonparaneoplastic condition. The role of neuroimaging in autoimmune-mediated encephalitis has changed in the last decade partly due to improvements in sequence optimisation and higher field strength and partly due to the discovery of an increasing number of antibodies to neuronal cell and cell membrane antigens. Imaging is i...

Symptomatic epileptogenic lesions.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The main aim of this study is to prove the association of seizure types with the MRI findings of the brain (etiological factor). Also, to prove which type of lesion is mostly represented in which age-group, and with which type of seizure. METHODS A total of 100 patients with symptomatic epilepsy, aged from 16 to 80 years, were hospitalized at the Neurology Clinic or ...
