Statistical voxel-wise analysis of ictal SPECT reveals pattern of abnormal perfusion in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the pattern of perfusion abnormalities in ictal and interictal brain perfusion SPECT images (BSI) from patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). METHOD It was acquired interictal and ictal BSI from 24 patients with refractory TLE. BSIs were analyzed by visual inspection and statistical parametric mapping (SPM2). Statistical analysis compared the patients group to a ...
متن کاملCorrelations of interictal FDG-PET metabolism and ictal SPECT perfusion changes in human temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis.
BACKGROUND The pathophysiological role of the extensive interictal cerebral hypometabolism in complex partial seizures (CPS) in refractory mesial temporal lobe epilepsy with hippocampal sclerosis (mTLE-HS) is poorly understood. Our aim was to study ictal-interictal SPECT perfusion versus interictal fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)-PET metabolic patterns. METHODS Eleven adults with refractory unilater...
متن کاملVoxel-based morphometry of adulthood patients with temporal lobe epilepsy
Background Partial epilepsy represents almost 70% of the epileptic syndrome. It is characterized by partial seizures that arise from the restricted area of the cerebral cortex. Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is the most frequent form of cryptogenic partial epilepsies [1]. The mesial temporal sclerosis is the pathologic abnormality most frequently detected in post mortem studies of subjects with T...
متن کاملA comparison of post-ictal headache between patients with occipital lobe epilepsy and temporal lobe epilepsy
We investigated post-ictal headaches (PIH) using a questionnaire to ascertain their characteristics and compare them among different types of epilepsy. The subjects consisted of 34 patients with occipital lobe epilepsy (OLE) and 75 patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). PIH occurred in 62% of OLE and 23% of TLE (P < 0.05). The quality of pain in PIH was 'steady' in 71% of OLE and 29% of TL...
متن کاملIctal ECG changes in temporal lobe epilepsy.
Changes in cardiac rhythm may occur during epileptic seizures and this has been suggested as a possible mechanism for sudden unexpected death amongst patients with chronic epilepsy (SUDEP). We have studied ECG changes during 61 complex partial seizures of temporal lobe origin in 20 patients. Tachycardia was observed in 24/61 (39%) and bradycardia in 3/61 (5%). The mean and median tachycardia ra...
