Bilateral isolated hippocampal malformation in temporal lobe epilepsy.

Hippocampal malformations in patients with epilepsy usually are reported in the context of widespread cortical malformations. Isolated hippocampal malformations are more rarely identified in MRI studies with little documentation of their pathologic appearance. Postmortem examination revealed abnormal position and complex convolutional malformations isolated to the hippocampal formation in an adult with temporal lobe epilepsy in whom MRI demonstrated bilateral hippocampal abnormalities.

Vagal nerve stimulation does not unkindle seizures.

The purpose of this study was to investigate a mechanism of action for the effect of vagal nerve stimulation on reducing seizures in patients with complex partial epilepsy. The hypothesis tested was that vagal nerve stimulation has an antikindling effect on epilepsy. The databases of two large clinical trials (E03, E05) were accessed, and statistical methods were applied using logarithmic transforms and regression analysis. Two parameters--duration of a patient's epilepsy before entering the clinical trial and the patient's seizure density before entering the clinical trial--were used as markers of subsequent seizure control during vagal nerve stimulation. In general, there was not a good fit to the regression lines, and the slope of the lines did not conform to the hypothesis. The hypothesis that vagal nerve stimulation may unkindle epileptic seizures was not supported.

Early childhood MRI findings in complex partial seizures and hippocampal sclerosis.

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed on an infant with typical complex partial seizures. Visual analysis revealed MRI signs of left hippocampal sclerosis (HS) at an age of 9 months. Morphometric data including volumetry and relaxometry confirming the diagnosis are shown. This is the first report of an infant younger than 2 years with typical MRI findings including morphometric data on HS.
