Clinical semiology of temporal lobe seizures in preschool children: contribution of invasive recording to anatomical classification

In order to describe the electroclinical semiology and establish anatomo-clinical correlations, we reviewed all the recorded seizures on scalp and invasive video-EEG and analysed pre- and postsurgical clinical data, MRI scans, and surgical and pathological data.

The majority of the 53% of patients with mesio-temporal epilepsies had specific ictal semiology, as described in adults. The others had subtle seizures or seizures limited to apnoea.
