Review demonstrates diverse neuropathologic lesions in temporal lobe epilepsy patients, highlighting updated classifications for focal cortical dysplasia and epilepsy-associated tumors.
Pathologic findings in surgical resections from patients with temporal lobe epilepsy include a wide range of diagnostic possibilities that can be categorized into different groups on the basis of etiology. This paper outlines the various pathologic entities described in temporal lobe epilepsy, including some newly recognized epilepsy-associated tumors, and briefly touch on the recent classification of focal cortical dysplasia. This classification takes into account coexistent pathologic lesions in focal cortical dysplasia.
