Ictal Switch Pattern among TEMPORAL LOBE SEIZURES and its Association with Other Markers of Bilaterality – A Retrospective Multicentre Study from North Kerala

SSSachin Sureshbabu PGP Gilna AHAshique Hamza

Key Points

To evaluate the ictal switch pattern in temporal lobe seizures and its relationship with other markers of bilaterality.
Retrospective multicentre study conducted in North Kerala
Analysis of patients with temporal lobe epilepsy
Assessment of ictal switch patterns and bilateral markers
Identified ictal switch patterns in temporal lobe seizures
Found associations between ictal switch and bilateral radiological findings
Implicated increased bilateral epileptogenicity in patients

Abstract

Ictal switch of lateralization is an atypical and rare observation in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Its presence heightens the likelihood of bilateral epileptogenicity in the presence of other markers of bilateral involvement such as bilateral interictal discharges or bilateral radiological findings.
