Amygdalar sclerosis: preoperative indicators and outcome after temporal lobectomy.
Isolated amygdalar sclerosis (AS) in the presence of an intact hippocampus has been described in a subset of patients who have undergone a temporal lobectomy for the relief of seizures. Clinical observation suggested that these patients might be distinguishable, before and after operation, from those with typical mesial temporal sclerosis, which implies combined amygdalar and hippocampal sclero...
متن کاملPredictors of outcome after anterior temporal lobectomy: positron emission tomography.
We assessed the relationship between temporal lobe metabolism measured quantitatively and qualitatively with PET using [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) and postoperative seizure frequency after anterior temporal lobectomy. Forty-three patients with refractory partial epilepsy had anterior temporal lobectomy and preoperative assessment with PET-FDG. Qualitative PET analysis was performed visually ...
متن کاملIctal spiking patterns recorded from temporal depth electrodes predict good outcome after anterior temporal lobectomy.
PURPOSE Investigators have shown that the presence of ictal spiking (IS) recorded from temporal depth electrodes is associated with mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS). We investigated the relation of IS to seizure control and pathology after anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL). METHODS All patients undergoing intracranial ictal monitoring from a single institution since 1989 were identified. Those...
متن کاملPost-ictal psychosis after right temporal lobectomy.
Of 298 patients who had temporal lobectomies for intractable epilepsy, 4 (1.3%) developed post-ictal psychosis for the first time after surgery. All were males of normal intelligence with no pre-operative psychiatric disorder. Psychosis followed both complex partial and generalised seizures. The psychotic symptoms showed polymorphic features. Right temporal lobectomy may increase the susceptibi...
متن کاملChoroid plexus changes after temporal lobectomy.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Postoperative contrast-enhanced MR imaging of the brain is routinely used when evaluating for residual or recurrent brain tumor. It is imperative to be aware of morphologic changes and imaging features that typically occur in response to surgical manipulation at the postoperative site to avoid misinterpretation of imaging findings. Our purpose was to determine normal post...
