Comparison of temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis and temporal lobe epilepsies due to other etiologies
Background: This study compares the clinical characteristics of patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (mTLE-HS) with those who have temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) due to other etiologies. Methods : In this retrospective study all patients with a clinical diagnosis of TLE were recruited in a referral outpatient epilepsy clinic at Shiraz University of Medical Sc...
متن کاملEndocrine abnormalities in human temporal lobe epilepsy.
Patients with temporal lobe epilepsy secrete ACTH at higher rates and in greater amounts than normal subjects. Temporal lobectomy restores ACTH secretion to normal amounts and rates. The ACTH secretion in temporal lobe epilepsy is independent of anticonvulsant drug effect and seizure frequency. Electrical stimulation of medial temporal lobe structures in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy aff...
متن کاملDevelopmental abnormalities of the medial temporal lobe in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy.
PURPOSE To evaluate MR temporal lobe malformations and their frequency in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. METHODS Two hundred twenty-two consecutive adult patients with temporal lobe epilepsy of varying severity were investigated with 1.0-T or 1.5-T MR units using three-dimensional T1-weighted acquisition protocol. RESULTS Sixteen patients (7.2%) presented with malformations of the te...
متن کاملRadiological abnormalities in temporal lobe epilepsy with clinicopathological correlations.
In 73 patients with drug-resistant temporal lobe epilepsy submitted to an unilateral anterior temporal lobectomy the radiographs were studied to see if there were any correlation with the pathology subsequently found and with the outcome of the operation. A small middle cranial fossa, focal calcification, and temporal horn displacement are often better indices of the underlying pathology than t...
متن کاملAn MRI study of temporal lobe abnormalities and negative symptoms in chronic schizophrenia.
Previous magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have reported various subtle brain abnormalities in schizophrenic patients, including temporal lobe abnormalities, which are of particular interest given the role of this brain region in auditory and language processing, and the characteristic deficits in these processes in schizophrenia. Subjects in this study were 16 male patients diagnosed wi...
