Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of high frequency magnetoencephalography signals in the localization of refractory temporal lobe epilepsy. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed in 10 patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy admitted to and accepted surgery in our hospital from January 2015 to December 2015. Surgical approaches of these patients were determined according to the results of long-term video EEG monitoring (VEEG), MR imaging, and conventional and high-frequency magnetoencephalography (MEG). MEG positioning analysis was performed after the surgery; followed up for 12 months was performed to evaluate the surgical efficacies. Results The surgery was effective in all the 10 patients; 5 patients achieved Engel grading Ⅰ, 2 patients achieved Engel grading Ⅱ, and 3 patients achieved Engel grading Ⅲ. The results of high-frequency MEG analysis indicated that 8 lesions were consistent with the surgical sites, enjoying good results; while the positioning error of the 2 patients was large. Conclusions The localization analysis of high-frequency neuromagnetic signals has the potential to determine epileptogenic zones preoperatively for epilepsy surgery. High-frequency oscillation is a new biomarker for the diagnosis of epilepsy.
