With the advent of magnetic resonance imaging, there has been an increased recognition of @entity15260 during life, especially in @entity302 @entity1 . We report our experience with the assessment and treatment of three @entity1 with medically intractable @entity410 associated with this condition. The three @entity1 were aged 24 to 37 years. Two had delayed developmental milestones and @entity1269 or @entity1158 . One had normal development and a normal neurological examination. @entity410 began between the ages of 15 and 19 years and lasted for 5 to 22 years before surgery. All had partial simple or generalized @entity410 with predominant electroencephalographic and electrocorticographic @entity302 activity localized to temporal and frontal lobes on the side of the lesion. Neuropsychological assessment indicated widespread dysfunction maximal at the areas of predominant electroencephalographic abnormality. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated anterior @entity1653 , parietal, and @entity2419 , with ventricular diverticuli, gray matter @entity3664 , @entity8568 , and a true agenesis of the @entity6789 in individual @entity1 . The @entity1 underwent temporal (one @entity1 ) and frontotemporal (two @entity1 ) lobectomies without additional neurological @entity51 . Postoperative follow-up showed reduction in @entity410 frequency. We conclude that the surgical treatment of @entity302 is well tolerated in such @entity1 , and their @entity410 can be alleviated by resection of epileptogenic areas.
