We performed neuropathologic examination of cerebral cortex specimens from 4 patients who underwent epilepsy surgery and the brain of 1 patient who died suddenly. All had severe epilepsy and had received gamma-vinyl-GABA (GVG, vigabatrin) for 3-5.5 years. Neither the surgically resected temporal lobe specimens nor the frontal and temporal lobes autopsy specimens showed abnormal white matter vacuolation.
