Delayed pattern discrimination in patients with unilateral temporal lobe damage.
Behavioral and neurophysiological studies in macaque monkeys suggest a role of the inferior temporal cortex in pattern discrimination and visual memory. To determine whether this cortical area is also involved in human short-term visual memory, we measured spatial frequency discrimination thresholds for sequentially presented stimuli in 17 patients with unilateral, postoperative focal damage to...
متن کاملSemantic memory is impaired in patients with unilateral anterior temporal lobe resection for temporal lobe epilepsy.
Contemporary clinical and basic neuroscience studies have increasingly implicated the anterior temporal lobe regions, bilaterally, in the formation of coherent concepts. Mounting convergent evidence for the importance of the anterior temporal lobe in semantic memory is found in patients with bilateral anterior temporal lobe damage (e.g. semantic dementia), functional neuroimaging and repetitive...
متن کاملContralateral Hippocampal Stimulation for Failed Unilateral Anterior Temporal Lobectomy in Patients with Bilateral Temporal Lobe Epilepsy.
AIMS To prospectively study the surgical outcomes of unilateral anterior temporal lobectomy (ATL) in patients with intractable bilateral temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) as well as two-staged contralateral hippocampal stimulation in patients after failed unilateral ATL. METHODS Eighteen carefully selected patients with bilateral TLE underwent unilateral ATL. Five cases with failed ATL underwent t...
متن کاملUnilateral hand automatisms in temporal lobe epilepsy
OBJECTIVES To analyse the lateralising value of unilateral manual automatism (UMA), its relation to contralateral dystonia and the hand by which the UMA was performed. METHODS In this retrospective study, we reviewed video recordings of 141 patients (mean age 34.1+/-10) who had consecutively undergone presurgical evaluations with ictal video-EEG recordings and high-resolution MRI, had had epi...
متن کاملComparison 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...
