Atypical hemispheric asymmetries for the processing of phonological features in children with rolandic epilepsy.
We assessed language lateralization in 177 healthy 4- to 11-year-old children and adults and atypical asymmetries associated with unilateral epileptic foci in 18 children with benign epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes (BECTS). Dichotic listening results revealed two indices of immature functional asymmetry when the focus was left-sided (BECTS-L). First, children with BECTS-L did not show left ...
متن کاملWhy Hemispheric Lateralization of Language is Only Part of the Story in Epilepsy Surgery Candidates.
Commentary Using their large sample of epilepsy surgery candidates, Berl et al. have made an important contribution regarding the complexity of the lateralization patterns during a semantic decision task of aurally presented word definitions. They have demonstrated the need for assessing lateralization of language in both Wernicke's area (WA) and Broca's area (inferior frontal gyrus [IFG]) rath...
متن کاملOutcomes of Disconnective Surgery in Intractable Pediatric Hemispheric and Subhemispheric Epilepsy
OBJECTIVES To study the outcome of disconnective epilepsy surgery for intractable hemispheric and sub-hemispheric pediatric epilepsy. METHODS A retrospective analysis of the epilepsy surgery database was done in all children (age <18 years) who underwent a peri-insular hemispherotomy (PIH) or a peri-insular posterior quadrantectomy (PIPQ) from April 2000 to March 2011. All patients underwent ...
متن کاملHemispheric Lateralization Interrupted: Material-Specific Memory Deficits in Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
The hemispheric lateralization of memory has largely been informed through the study of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy originating from medial temporal sources (mTLE). The material-specific model of memory relies on the basic framework that the left temporal lobe mediates verbal memories, while the right temporal lobe mediates non-verbal memories. Over the years, this model has been refin...
متن کاملBilateral hemispheric alteration of memory processes in right medial temporal lobe epilepsy.
OBJECTIVE Functional MRI (fMRI ) was used to investigate right medial temporal lobe epilepsy (RTLE) effects on verbal memory. METHODS BOLD fMRI data were collected from seven right sided MTLE patients (RTLE) and compared with the data previously acquired from seven left sided MTLE patients (LTLE) and 10 control subjects. Twenty two contiguous images covering the whole brain were acquired usin...
