Calcified neurocysticercotic lesions and postsurgery seizure control in temporal lobe epilepsy

Abstract

The presence of CCL does not influence the clinical and pathologic profile of patients with hippocampal atrophy. Clinical histories and postsurgical outcomes were similar to those of patients with classic HS, suggesting that the CCL is probably, in this set of patients, a coincidental pathology and does not have a role in epileptogenesis.
