Hippocampal sclerosis (HS) and malformations of cortical
development (MCDs) are most common structural
abnormalities in patients with chronic intractable
epilepsy. Chronic intractable epilepsy is common cause
of mesial temporal sclerosis which can affect mesial
temporal structures and mesial frontal region associated
language areas. Our result has suggested that LTLE
patients showed atypical language reorganization in
comparison to RTLE and ETLE group after surgery. In this
study we used maximum componants of language (semantic,
semantic decision task, lexical and comprehension
language). Study is helpful for determine effectiveness
of fMRI language paradigm, surgery planning, language
reorganisation (Pre & post surgery) in LTLE, RTLE and
ETLE patients.
