  2. Hippocampal sclerosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocampal_sclerosis

    In 1825, Bouchet and Cazauvieilh described palpable firmness and atrophy of the uncus and medial temporal lobe of brains from epileptic and non-epileptic individuals. [4]: 565 In 1880, Wilhelm Sommer investigated 90 brains and described the classical Ammon's horn sclerosis pattern, severe neuronal cell loss in hippocampal subfield cornum Ammonis 1 (CA1) and some neuronal cell loss in ...

  3. Anterior temporal lobectomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anterior_temporal_lobectomy

    Nearly all reports of seizure outcome following these procedures indicate that the best outcome group includes patients with MRI evidence of mesial temporal sclerosis (hippocampal atrophy with increased T-2 signal). The range of seizure-free outcomes for these patients is reported to be between 80% and 90%, which is typically reported as a sub ...

  4. Temporal lobe epilepsy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_lobe_epilepsy

    A focal impaired awareness temporal lobe seizure occurs if a person becomes unaware during any part of the seizure. [10] Mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE). Approximately 80% of seizures in the temporal lobe begin in the mesial temporal region, frequently starting in or around the hippocampus.

  5. MTS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTS

    Mesial temporal sclerosis, pattern of hippocampal neuron cell loss; Mohr–Tranebjærg syndrome, also known as deafness–dystonia syndrome; MTS assay, a biochemical cell assay used in research; Muir–Torre syndrome, a cancer syndrome

  6. Management of drug-resistant epilepsy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Management_of_drug...

    Identification of common lesions associated with epilepsy like focal cortical dysplasia, mesial temporal sclerosis, microencephalocele, and heterotopia require thorough review of images by trained clinicians as the changes can be very subtle and easily missed if not specifically evaluated for.

  7. Focal seizure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_seizure

    A common associated brain abnormality is mesial temporal sclerosis. [15] Mesial temporal sclerosis is a specific pattern of hippocampal neuronal loss accompanied by hippocampal gliosis and atrophy. [18] Complex partial seizures occur when excessive and synchronous electrical brain activity causes the impaired awareness and responsiveness. [19]

  8. Frontotemporal dementia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontotemporal_dementia

    Structural MRI scans often reveal frontal lobe and/or anterior temporal lobe atrophy, but in early cases the scan may seem normal. Atrophy can be either bilateral or asymmetric. [ 13 ] Registration of images at different points of time (e.g., one year apart) can show evidence of atrophy that otherwise at individual time points may be reported ...

  9. Frontotemporal lobar degeneration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontotemporal_lobar...

    Frontotemporal lobar degeneration; Neuropathologic analysis of brain tissue from FTLD-TDP patients. Ubiquitin immunohistochemistry in cases of familial FTLD-TDP demonstrates staining of (a) neurites and neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions in the superficial cerebral neocortex, (b) neuronal cytoplasmic inclusions in hippocampal dentate granule cells, and (c) neuronal intranuclear inclusions in the ...
