Some cases can result from injury to this part of the brain from prolonged [[febrile seizures]]. In other cases, a genetic susceptibility can play a role as well especially in cases where family members have had similar [[seizure]]s. In children with newly diagnosed [[epilepsy]], only approximately 1% have evidence of [[Mesial Temporal Sclerosis]] on imaging. Furthermore, in adults 3-10% of cases of mesial temporal sclerosis demonstrate bilateral changes even though symptoms may be unilateral. mesial_temporal_sclerosis_etiology.txt Last modified: 2024/06/07 02:56by 127.0.0.1
