Efficacy of neuromodulation of the pulvinar nucleus for drug-resistant epilepsy.
Epilepsia
January 2025
Texas Comprehensive Epilepsy Program, Department of Neurosurgery, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Houston, Texas, USA.
Objective: The pulvinar nucleus of the thalamus has extensive cortical connections with the temporal, parietal, and occipital lobes. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the pulvinar nucleus, therefore, carries the potential for therapeutic benefit in patients with drug-resistant posterior quadrant epilepsy (PQE) and neocortical temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Here, we present a single-center experience of patients managed via bilateral DBS of the pulvinar nucleus.

Background: Major depressive disorder (MDD) and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) are two of the leading causes of impairment to human mental health. These two psychiatric disorders overlap in many symptoms and neurobiological features thus difficult to distinguish in some cases.
Methods: We enrolled 102 participants, comprising 40 patients with MDD, 32 patients with GAD and 30 matched healthy controls (HCs), to undergo multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans.
Transorbital laser surgery for epilepsy: Anatomic-radiological feasibility of transorbital magnetic resonance imaging-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRIgLITT) for amygdalohippocampectomy in refractory epilepsy.
Clin Neurol Neurosurg
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain; Universitat de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain; Institut d'Investigacions Biomèdiques August Pi i Sunyer (IDIBAPS), Barcelona, Spain.
Objective: to study the anatomical feasibility of laser fiber insertion for interstitial thermal therapy via transorbital approach to the temporo-mesial structures (amygdala-hippocampus-parahippocampus complex).
Methods: Anatomical dissections were performed bilaterally on two human cadaveric heads via a transorbital approach, in which screws and laser fibers were used for magnetic resonance imaging-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy (MRIgLITT) assisted by neuronavigation. In addition, eight transorbital trajectories were simulated using the transorbital entry points obtained from a cadaveric radiological study of four patients previously operated on for mesial temporal lobe epilepsy.
Ictal EEG of benign convulsion with mild gastroenteritis with in infants and children.

Department of Clinical Neuroelectrophysiology, Wuhan Children's Hospital of Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China. Electronic address:
Objective: There are fewer reports on the ictal electroencephalogram(EEG) of convulsions in infants and children with mild gastroenteritis (BCWG). Our study retrospectively analyzed the ictal EEG characteristics of convulsive episodes of BCWG.
Methods: The seizure-phase EEGs of children diagnosed with BCWG from September 2016 to January 2022 were searched and analyzed, and a total of thirteen seizure-phase EEGs of eight cases were analyzed retrospectively.
Lateralization study of the basal ganglia, thalamus and supplying arteries in healthy individuals based on structure and connectivity analysis using 7.0T MRI.

Department of Radiology, First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, No.1 Youyi Road, Yuzhong District, Chongqing 400016, China. Electronic address:
The human cerebral cortex is known for its hemispheric specialization, which underpins a variety of functions and activities. However, it is not well understood if similar lateralization exists within the deep gray matter nuclei, such as the basal ganglia (BG) and thalamus, and their associated arteries, including the lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs). To explore this, we analyzed images from 7T MRI scans of 40 healthy young individuals.
