Seizures: Classification

2.0K
Epilepsy is primarily characterized by unpredictable seizures, either provoked by an identifiable factor, such as injury or illness, or unprovoked, occurring spontaneously without apparent cause.
Seizures are typically classified into two main categories: focal and generalized seizures.
Focal Seizures
Focal seizures originate from specific regions of the brain. These seizures are further sub-classified into two types:

Epilepsy and Seizures: Overview

1.6K
Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disease marked by recurrent, unpredictable seizures. These seizures are caused by abnormal electrical discharges in the brain, leading to behavior, sensation, or consciousness alterations. They can also cause transient impairment of awareness, interfering with daily activities.
Various factors can trigger epilepsy, including genetic factors, brain damage, metabolic causes, and unknown etiology. Diagnosis of epilepsy involves electroencephalography (EEG), which...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

Temporal plus epilepsy, a complex network disorder, may explain persistent seizures after surgery. Diagnosis requires invasive recordings, but clinical and imaging data can raise suspicion.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Epileptology

Background:

  • Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is treatable, yet 40% of patients experience persistent seizures post-surgery.
  • This suggests a potential for more complex epileptogenic networks beyond the temporal lobe.
  • Limited research necessitates an updated review of this condition.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To update the understanding of "temporal plus epilepsy" and its associated complex networks.
  • To review clinical, electroencephalographic (EEG), and imaging features of this epilepsy subtype.

Main Methods:

  • A comprehensive literature search was conducted on PubMed using specific keywords related to temporal plus epilepsy and extratemporal involvement.
  • Included studies were in English and Spanish.
  • Case series and case reports formed the primary evidence base.

Main Results:

  • 48 relevant papers were reviewed, detailing features of temporal plus epilepsy.
  • Common symptoms include atypical auras (e.g., gustatory, vestibular) and specific ictal signs (e.g., tonic posturing, hemifacial twist).
  • EEG findings often show regional or bilateral abnormalities, with initial ictal changes being regional.

Conclusions:

  • Temporal plus epilepsy is a complex diagnosis often requiring invasive recordings for confirmation.
  • Clinical presentation, EEG patterns, and imaging data can suggest this diagnosis prior to invasive procedures.
