Three young adults with intractable complex partial seizures were studied by electroencephalography, magnetoencephalography, and electrocorticography. Interictal electroencephalographic (EEG) spikes for each patient were grouped according to their morphological characteristics and distribution across channels. Mapping of simultaneously recorded magnetoencephalographic signals produced dipolar patterns from which the three-dimensional locations of equivalent current dipoles were calculated, whereas the mapping of EEG spikes showed single regions of electronegativity. The magnetic spikes were localized to the anterotemporal lobe, and the EEG spikes were localized somewhat anterior or posterior to the magnetic spikes. The magnetoencephalographic findings corresponded well with intraoperative electrocorticographic and depth-electrode findings of discharging areas located over the lateral temporal lobe and on the basal and mesial surfaces of the temporal cortex.

D004833 Epilepsy, Temporal Lobe A localization-related (focal) form of epilepsy characterized by recurrent seizures that arise from foci within the TEMPORAL LOBE, most commonly from its mesial aspect. A wide variety of psychic phenomena may be associated, including illusions, hallucinations, dyscognitive states, and affective experiences. The majority of complex partial seizures (see EPILEPSY, COMPLEX PARTIAL) originate from the temporal lobes. Temporal lobe seizures may be classified by etiology as cryptogenic, familial, or symptomatic. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p321).
