TL;DR: In this paper, a screen for de novo mutations in patients with two classical epileptic encephalopathies: infantile spasms and Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (n = 115) was performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surgical outcome and prognostic factors of frontal lobe epilepsy surgery
TL;DR: More than half of patients in favourable prognostic categories were seizure-free at 3 years, and up to 40% were seizure free at 5 years, compared to <15% in those with unfavourable outcome predictors, which underscores the importance of appropriate selection of potential surgical candidates.
Journal Article
The epileptogenic zone: general principles
TL;DR: Sir Victor Horsley, a British neurosurgeon, pioneered epilepsy surgery and, in 1886, published the reports of successful cortical resections that resulted in a significant reduction in epileptic seizures in three patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The authors perform genome-wide association studies for 3 broad and 7 subtypes of epilepsy and identify 16 loci - 11 novel - that are further annotated by eQTL and partitioned heritability analyses that provide leads for epilepsy therapies based on underlying pathophysiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: To assess short- and long-term seizure freedom, the authors reviewed 371 patients who underwent anterior temporal lobectomy to treat pharmacoresistant epilepsy and identified multiple predictors of recurrence.
