Lead Sponsor:

Adrien Peyrache

Conditions:

Epilepsy, Refractory

Eligibility:

All Genders

Phase:

NA

Brief Summary

record fast ripples with novel intracranial electrodes with micro-tetrodes to improve the identification of epileptogenic zone (EZ) and investigate the neuronal circuits underlying brain dynamics asso...

Detailed Description

This study would improve the localization of the epileptogenic zone and reduce the overall duration of monitoring, especially in patients who do not experience a sufficient number of seizures during t...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • inclusion criteria is determined based on the clinical diagnosis of the refractory epilepsy and the admissibility of the patient for the stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) procedure

Exclusion

  • severe agitation during their crisis
  • contraindication for performing an MRI: claustrophobia, a cardiac or neural stimulator, ferromagnetic surgical clips, cochlear implants, intraocular metallic foreign body or in the nervous system,
  • contraindication to intracerebral investigation (macro-electrodes): ongoing infection, severe associated pathology (cardiac, pulmonary, renal, hepatic), pregnant or nursing women,
  • anti thrombotic ongoing treatment.
