Significance: Despite the availability of various anti-seizure medications, nearly 1/3 of epilepsy patients experience drug-resistant seizures. These patients are left with invasive surgical options that do not guarantee seizure remission. The development of novel treatment options depends on elucidating the complex biology of seizures and brain networks.

Approximately 40% of individuals undergoing anterior temporal lobe resection for temporal lobe epilepsy experience episodic memory decline. There has been a focus on early memory network changes; longer-term plasticity and its impact on memory function are unclear. Our study investigates neural mechanisms of memory recovery and network plasticity over nearly a decade post-surgery.

Background Hemimegalencephaly (HME) is a rare congenital disorder that is initiated during embryonic development with abnormal growth of one hemisphere. Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), a genetic disorder, is rarely associated with HME. Methods We present a case of a newborn with HME with a confirmed mutation in the TSC-1 gene and describe the clinical course, findings on (amplitude integrated) electroencephalography (aEEG), cranial ultrasound (CUS), MRI, and the postmortem evaluation.

Background: Temporal lobe epilepsy with isolated amygdala enlargement (TLE-AE) still lacks a definite characterization and controversies exist.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study identifying brain MRI scans with isolated AE between 2015 and 2021. We collected clinical and paraclinical data of patients with TLE-AE and evaluated the outcome.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a viral pandemic and a matter of concern. It also mimics viral pneumonia with cough and fever but also causes severe sequels and various complications. Subdural empyema is a very rare brain infection presenting mostly with fever, weakness, and altered level of consciousness, and has been recently noted as a new complication of COVID-19.
