Routine and sleep EEG: Minimum recording standards of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology and the International League Against Epilepsy.

This article provides recommendations on the minimum standards for recording routine ("standard") and sleep electroencephalography (EEG). The joint working group of the International Federation of Clinical Neurophysiology (IFCN) and the International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) developed the standards according to the methodology suggested for epilepsy-related clinical practice guidelines by the Epilepsy Guidelines Working Group. We reviewed the published evidence using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) statement.

Anatomoelectroclinical features of SEEG-confirmed pure insular-onset epilepsy.

Purpose: In this study, we aimed to improve our knowledge of insular epilepsy by studying anatomoelectroclinical correlations in pure insular-onset epilepsy and characterizing differences between anterior and posterior insular-onset seizures.

Methods: Patients in whom seizure-onset zone was confined to the insula and peri-insular sulcus were selected from 301 consecutive presurgical stereo-electroencephalography (EEG) recordings performed between years 2010 and 2017 in two epilepsy centers. Ictal-onset zone in stereo-EEG was delineated visually and quantitatively using epileptogenic index method.

The effect of surgery in encephalopathy with electrical status epilepticus during sleep.

Purpose: We analyzed clinical and electroencephalography (EEG) outcomes of 13 patients with pharmacoresistant encephalopathy with electrical status epilepticus during sleep (ESES) following epilepsy surgery.

Methods: All patients had symptomatic etiology of ESES and preoperative neuropsychological deterioration. Ten patients had daily atypical absences.
