Combined SEEG and source localisation study of temporal lobe schizencephaly and polymicrogyria

Résumé

Objectives Type 1 schizencephaly (SZ) is a cerebral malformation characterised by a cleft lined and surrounded by a polymicrogyric cortex, extending from the pial region to the peri-ventricular heterotopia. Our purpose was to combine and compare dipole source imaging technique and Stereo-EEG (SEEG) technique in determining the irritative and epileptogenic zones in a case of type 1 schizencephaly. Methods High-resolution (64-channel) video-EEG with electrical source imaging and SEEG recordings were performed during a pre-surgical evaluation for medically intractable epilepsy. Results Anatomo-electro-clinical correlations based on SEEG and source localisation identified two irritative and epileptogenic zones partially overlapping the polymicrogyric cortex surrounding the SZ: an anterior medio-lateral network primarily involving dysplasic limbic structures and a lateral network involving the anterior and middle part of the cleft and polymicrogyric cortex. The most posterior part (at the temporo-parieto-occipital junction) displayed a normal background activity. Conclusions Both epileptogenic and electrophysiologically normal cortices coexisted within the same widespread malformation: only the anterior part belonged to the anterior medio-lateral epileptogenic network defined by the SEEG. Significance In cases of widespread cortical malformation such as SZ, source localization techniques can help to define the irritative zone and relevant targets for SEEG.
