Experimental models of epilepsy are useful to identify potential mechanisms of
epileptogenesis, seizure genesis, comorbidities, and treatment efficacy. The kainic acid (KA) …

Summary 10· 5 million children worldwide are estimated to have active epilepsy. Over the

Both the amygdala and the hippocampus are involved in the pathogenesis of a number of
neurologic conditions, including temporal lobe epilepsy, postanoxic amnesia, and …

Sixty‐seven patients with temporal lobe epilepsy without circumscribed, potentially
epileptogenic lesions, who were studied with intracranial electrodes and who became …

The association between hippocampal sclerosis (HS) and epilepsy has been known for
almost two centuries. For many years, HS was studied in postmortem series; however, since …

We performed MRI volumetric measurements of the amygdala (AM), the hippocampal

Functional and structural neuroimaging techniques are increasingly indispensable in the
evaluation of epileptic patients for localization of the epileptic area as well as for …

Most patients with non-lesional temporal lobe epilepsy (NLTLE) will have the findings of
hippocampal sclerosis (HS) on a high resolution MRI. However, a significant minority of …
