Intractable temporal lobe epilepsy with rare spikes is less severe than with frequent spikes

Intractable temporal lobe epilepsy with rare spikes is less severe than with frequent spikes

To analyze clinical, electrophysiologic, and neuroradiologic characteristics of a group of patients with nonlesional intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and rare or absent interictal epileptiform abnormalities (IEA). Between 1990 and 2000, 31 patients (11 men; mean +/- SD age 34.3 +/- 11.7 year...

Zusammenfassung:To analyze clinical, electrophysiologic, and neuroradiologic characteristics of a group of patients with nonlesional intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and rare or absent interictal epileptiform abnormalities (IEA). Between 1990 and 2000, 31 patients (11 men; mean +/- SD age 34.3 +/- 11.7 years) with nonlesional intractable TLE were consecutively selected on the basis of the absence or paucity of IEA (
