Abstract

Objective: To assess seizure and cognitive outcomes and their predictors in children (<16 years at surgery) and adults undergoing temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) surgery in eight Italian centers. Methods: This is a retrospective multicenter study. We performed a descriptive analysis and subsequently carried out multivariable mixed‐effect models corrected for multiple comparisons. Results: We analyzed data from 511 patients (114 children) and observed significant differences in several clinical features between adults and children. The possibility of achieving Engel class IA outcome and discontinuing antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) at last follow‐up (FU) was significantly higher in children (P =.006 and <.0001). However, percentages of children and adults in Engel class I at last FU (mean ± SD, 45.9 ± 17 months in children; 45.9 ± 20.6 months in adults) did not differ significantly. We identified different predictors of seizure outcome in children vs adults and at short‐ vs long‐term FU. The only variables consistently associated with class I outcome over time were postoperative electroencephalography (EEG) in adults (abnormal, improved,odds ratio [OR] = 0.414, P =.023, Q = 0.046 vs normal, at 2‐year FU and abnormal, improved, OR = 0.301, P =.001, Q = 0.002 vs normal, at last FU) and the completeness of resection of temporal magnetic resonance (MR) abnormalities other than hippocampal sclerosis in children (OR = 7.93, P =.001, Q = 0.003, at 2‐year FU and OR = 45.03, P <.0001, Q < 0.0001, at last FU). Cognitive outcome was best predicted by preoperative performances in either age group. Significance: Clinical differences between adult and pediatric patients undergoing TLE surgery are reflected in differences in long‐term outcomes and predictors of failures. Children are more likely to achieve sustained seizure freedom and withdraw AEDs after TLE surgery. Earlier referral should be encouraged as it can improve surgical outcome. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Objective: To analyze the attitude and results of Italian epilepsy surgery centers in the surgical management of “low grade epilepsy associated neuroepithelial tumors” (LEATs). Methods: We conducted a retrospective study enrolling 339 consecutive patients with LEATs who underwent surgery between January 2009 and June 2015 at eight Italian epilepsy surgery centers. We compared demographic, clinical, pathologic, and surgical features of patients with favorable (Engel class I) and unfavorable (Engel class II, III, and IV) seizure outcome. In addition, we compared patients with tumor-associated focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) and patients with solitary tumors to identify factors correlated with FCD diagnosis. Results: Fifty-five (98.2%) of 56 patients with medically controlled epilepsy were seizure-free after surgery, compared to 249 (88.0%) of 283 patients with refractory epilepsy. At multivariate analysis, three variables independently predict unfavorable seizure outcome in the drug-resistant group. Age at surgery is largely the most significant (p = 0.001), with an odds ratio (OR) of 1.04. This means that the probability of seizure recurrence grows by 4% for every waited year. The resection site is also significant (p = 0.039), with a relative risk (RR) of 1.99 for extratemporal tumors. Finally, the completeness of tumor resection has a trend toward significance (p = 0.092), with an RR of 1.82 for incomplete resection. Among pediatric patients, a longer duration of epilepsy was significantly associated with preoperative neuropsychological deficits (p < 0.001). A statistically significant association was observed between FCD diagnosis and the following variables: tailored surgery (p < 0.001), temporal resection (p = 0.001), and surgical center (p = 0.012). Significance: Our nationwide LEATs study gives important insights on factors predicting seizure outcome in refractory epilepsy and determining variability in FCD detection. Timely surgery, regardless of phar

Abstract

Purpose:Amnestic syndromes are acknowledged to be associated to bilateral hippocampal damage. Materials and methods:We briefly report the case of a young man who underwent anterior left temporal lobectomy for a medically refractory temporal lobe epilepsy due to hippocampal sclerosis with an excellent seizure and neuropsychological outcome. Approximately 10 years later, he presented with a subacute severe global amnesia and neuroimaging findings of a damage involving the contralateral mesial temporal lobe structures. Results:A diagnosis of a possible autoimmune encephalitis was made. Conclusions:Due to its peculiarities (compared with other cases of bilateral temporal lesions, the damage occurred on two distinct occasions), this case might contribute to shed light on the issue of the possible contralateral reorganization of memory processes subserved by the mesial temporal lobe structures chronically involved in epileptogenesis.
