Controversy exists as to whether hippocampal sclerosis (HS) is a preexisting cause or a consequence of seizures. We investigated 122 consecutive patients who underwent anterior temporal lobectomy for intractable epilepsy between 1989 and 1992. MRI scans were normal apart from evidence of HS in 5 cas
## Abstract ## Objective: Malformations of cortical development (MCDs) are a major cause of medically refractory epilepsy. Our aim was to examine a surgical series of patients with cortical malformations to determine the prognostic factors associated with longβterm seizure control. ## Methods: W
## Abstract Although mice are amenable to gene knockout, they have not been exploited in the setting of seizureβinduced neurodegeneration due to the resistance to injury of key mouse strains. We refined and developed models of seizureβinduced neuronal death in the C57BL/6 and BALB/c strains by foca
