Tube Closure

This chapter describes and illustrates the changes of the central nervous system in congenital malformations and perinatal diseases; it also provides insights in the genetic abnormalities associated with these conditions. Congenital malformations include neurulation failure resulting in neural tube closure defects; disorders of development of the prosencephalon; malformations of the cortical plate (neuronal heterotopia, polymicrogyria, lissencephaly, and focal cortical dysplasia [a frequent cause of epilepsy in children]); and disorders of hindbrain development, particularly malformations of the cerebellum. Destructive lesions of developing brain are described in association with a variety of situations generally resulting in “hypoxia-ischemia.” They may affect the neocortex, causing porencephaly or hydranencephaly; the basal ganglia (status marmoratus); or the white matter (perinatal telencephalic leukoencephalopathy and periventricular leukomalacia).

Inappropriate Choice

The growing requirement for invasive EEG in presurgical evaluation of intractable focal epilepsy has been driven largely by the increasing complexity of epilepsy surgery cases. Extratemporal surgeries now exceed anterior temporal lobe resections for mesial temporal sclerosis, and the proportion of patients undergoing invasive EEGs has significantly increased. Half of all patients undergoing stereotactic EEG (SEEG) evaluations are MRI-negative (usually with focal cortical dysplasia type 1 or 2) and a third are reoperations for failed resective or palliative surgery. Certain principles guide the decision to use invasive EEG and the choice of invasive EEG technique. SEEG has distinct advantages, as do subdural grid evaluations and intraoperative corticography. The consequences of loose hypotheses in the decision to invasively evaluate a patient, and of inappropriate choice of technique, include poor seizure outcomes after surgery, morbidity, and mortality. This chapter discusses the guiding principles for invasive studies of the human epileptic brain.
