Ictal and Interictal Electroencephalography of Mesial and Lateral Temporal Lobe Epilepsy; A Comparative Study
Background: Epilepsy is considered as one of the most important disorders in neurology. Temporal lobe epilepsy is a form of epilepsy including two main types of mesial and lateral (neocortex). Objectives: Determination and comparison of electroencephalogram (EEG) pattern in the ictal and interictal phases of mesial and lateral temporal lobe epilepsy. Materials and Methods: This cross-sectiona...
متن کاملPrediction of Epileptic Seizures in Patients with Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) based on Cepstrum analysis and AR model of EEG signal
Epilepsy is a chronic disorder of brain function caused by abnormal and excessive electrical neurons discharge in the brain. Seizures cause disturbances in consciousness that occur without prior notice, so their prediction ability, based on EEG data, can reduce stress and improve quality of life. An epileptic patient EEG data consists of five parts: Ictal, Inter-Ictal, pre-Ictal, Post-Ictal, an...
متن کاملElectroencephalography in Mesial Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: A Review
Electroencephalography (EEG) has an important role in the diagnosis and classification of epilepsy. It can provide information for predicting the response to antiseizure drugs and to identify the surgically remediable epilepsies. In temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) seizures could originate in the medial or lateral neocortical temporal region, and many of these patients are refractory to medical tre...
متن کاملEpilepsy surgery in patients with unilateral mesial temporal sclerosis and contralateral scalp ictal onset.
AIM Concordance of EEG findings and MRI is best correlated with favored surgical outcome in patients with unilateral mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS). If there is no evidence for unilateral focus with scalp EEG, invasive recordings are undertaken. In this report we describe the investigation process for epilepsy surgery in patients with unilateral MTS and contralateral ictal scal...
متن کاملThe clinical usefulness of ictal surface EEG in neocortical epilepsy.
PURPOSE Localizable scalp EEGs, during ictal episodes, appear to be rare in neocortical epileptic syndromes. However, studies based on large numbers of patients are also rare. This study aims to identify the characteristic patterns of variable neocortical epilepsies and to evaluate their clinical usefulness in the localization of epileptogenic focuses. METHODS We retrospectively assessed 394 ...
متن کاملLateralizing value of interictal spikes on overnight sleep-EEG studies in temporal lobe epilepsy.
PURPOSE To determine the lateralizing value of interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) recorded during overnight sleep-EEG studies in temporal lobe epilepsy. Because IEDs are more prevalent in non-rapid eye movement (NREM) sleep than in wakefulness, overnight sleep-EEG recordings may contribute additional lateralizing information to the epilepsy surgery evaluation beyond daytime EEGs. METHO...
