[...]Adherence to antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) and use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) among Hondurans with epilepsy were evaluated. Our epilepsy cohort of 274 outpatients was surveyed to determine demographics, epilepsy treatment history, adherence, and use of CAM.[...]epilepsy were also interviewed to gain an understanding of their beliefs and longstanding practices regarding epilepsy. Seventeen (34.7%) attributed epilepsy to the supernatural; only three knew of an AED.[...]

[...]Patients with psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are common in tertiary epilepsy centers, emergency departments, and neurological practices. Psychiatric discussion of patients with PNES has emphasized the role of trauma and dissociation.[...]This perspective offers resolutions to longstanding controversies, including how to communicate the diagnosis, discontinuing medication, and ongoing neurological contact.

[...]Selective amygdalohippocampectomy SAHE has been pioneered by Yasargil et al in the mid 1970 within the scope of surgical treatment for intractable mesial temporal lobe epilepsy MTLE. In this article, the author has emphasized microsurgical points to be kept in mind in carrying out the procedure from the experience of just more than 200 surgeries performed by himself during the last 14 years.[...]Historical backgrounds of development of this technique, necessary topographic anatomy, perioperative management and our results were also presented.

[...]OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between the apolipoprotein (ApoE) epsilon4 allele and memory performance (verbal and nonverbal) in patients with medically intractable temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) who underwent temporal lobectomy. METHODS: Presurgical and postsurgical memory performance was examined in 87 adult [...] in this population and to examine how this relationship may be affected by duration of epilepsy. RESULTS: There was a significant interaction between ApoE-epsilon4 status and duration of epilepsy such that epsilon4 carriers with a long duration of [...]This relationship was observed both before and after temporal lobectomy, with little change in test performance over time. CONCLUSIONS: The ApoE-epsilon4 allele interacts with longstanding seizures to affect memory performance, both verbal and nonverbal, in patients with medically intractable [...]
