Mesial Temporal Lobe

Introduction: One of the objectives of pre-surgical evaluation in mesial temporal epilepsy associated to hippoocampal sclerosis is the identification of patients with bad surgical prognosis for seizure control. At least theoretically, neuropsychological tests could be used in this venue. Objective: To evaluate whether verbal and visual memory tests can be used as isolate predictors of the post-surgical seizure outcome in patients with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy associated with hippocampal sclerosis refractory to pharmacological treatment. Methods: In a retrospective cohort study using the control of epileptic seizures as end-point, we evaluated 187 patients and calculated the correlation of clinical variables, cognitive evaluation, neuroimaging data, demographic data and electrophysiological findings with the result of seizure control after lobectomy in these patients. Results: An unfavorable prognosis during the postoperative period was observed only in association with low visual reproduction scores (visual memory). However, after Bonferroni correction, which was necessary to reduce the chance of type I error, this result was found to be spurious. Conclusion: We conclude that neuropsychological tests of verbal and visual memory such as those used in the routine presurgical evaluation of our patients with temporal lobe epilepsy are not good isolated predictors of surgical outcome.

Memory Complaints

Objective:To test the hypothesis that temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) patients with subjective initial memory complaints (not confirmed by an objective standard assessment) and various phenotypes also show objective very long-term memory deficit with accelerated long-term forgetting. We tested TLE patients with two surprise memory tests after three weeks: the standard Free and Cued Selective Reminding Test (FCSRT), and Epireal, a new test specifically designed to capture more ecological aspects of autobiographical memory.Methods:47 TLE patients (12 hippocampal sclerosis, 12 amygdala enlargement, 11 extensive lesions, 12 normal MRI) who complained about their memory, but for whom the standard neuropsychological assessment did not reveal any memory impairment after a standard delay of 20 minutes, underwent two surprise memory tests after three weeks. They were compared to 35 healthy control subjects.Results:After three weeks, FCSRT and Epireal recall scores were significantly lower in patients than in controls (p<0.001). There was no significant correlation between FCSRT and Epireal scores (p=0.99). Seventy-six percent of TLE patients had objective impairment on at least one of these very long-term memory tests, regardless of the existence and type of lesion or response to antiseizure medication. Easily applicable, Epireal had a higher effect size, detected deficits in 28% more patients, and is a useful addition to the standard workup.Conclusion:Assessing long-term memory should be broadened to a wide spectrum of TLE patients with a memory complaint, regardless of the epileptic syndrome, whether or not associated with a lesion. This could lead to rethinking TLE nosology associated with memory.
