Stereo-EEG exploration in the insula/operculum in paediatric patients with refractory epilepsy

PurposeFailure to recognise involvement of the insula / opercula (I/O) region is associated with poor outcome in epilepsy surgery. Recognition is challenging due to high connectivity with adjacent structures resulting in variable and misleading semiology, often subjective and therefore likely to be underreported by children. In this study we explored prevalence and characteristics of I/O involvement in paediatric patients undergoing sEEG...
