Gelastic seizures with dancing arising from the anterior prefrontal cortex.

Aim: This case report provides insight into the function of the anterior prefrontal cortex (aPFC), specifically Brodmann Area 10 (BA10), and its interconnectivity.

Method: We present a 10-year-old patient with lesional epilepsy and ictal onset, localised to BA10 in the aPFC.

Results: Thirty-four seizures were recorded.

Depth electrodes in pediatric epilepsy surgery.

Background: The surgical removal of the epileptogenic zone in medically intractable seizures depends on accurate localization to minimize the neurological sequelae and prevent future seizures. To date, few studies have demonstrated the use of depth electrodes in a pediatric epilepsy population. Here, we report our study of pediatric epilepsy patients at our epilepsy center who were successfully operated for medically intractable seizures following the use of intracranial depth electrodes.
