Abstract
Epilepsy is a common neurologic disorder in general population. Complex partial seizure (CPS) is the most common type of the focal seizure and considered to be the most resistant of seizures to medical management. In patients with medically intractable CPS, mesial temporal sclerosis is the most common pathologic abnormality found, having been described as the cause of CPS. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the hippocampus is a valuable, noninvasive localization method in CPS. In our study, we analyzed 18 patients which have been established mesial temporal sclerosis by MRI and compared with clinical, electroencephalographical, and computed tomographical findings.
