Frontal lobe function in temporal lobe epilepsy
TL;DR: Evidence from both the neuropsychological and neuroimaging literature suggests both executive function and working memory are compromised in the presence of TLE, and the identification of the nature of frontal lobe dysfunction in TLE has important clinical implications for prognosis and surgical management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neuropsychological deficits in temporal lobe epilepsy: A comprehensive review.
TL;DR: TLE affects several of cognitive function domains, but the etiopathogenesis of all these dysfunctions remain elusive, and critical components of language related deficits are also found in the form of word-finding difficulties.
