Epileptic foci and networks in children with epilepsy after acute encephalopathy with biphasic seizures and late reduced diffusion.

EEG-fMRI revealed multiple epileptic foci and extensive epileptic networks, including subcortical structures in two cases with post-AESD epilepsy. CC may be effective in disconnecting the bilaterally synchronous epileptic networks of epileptic spasms after AESD, and pre-and post-operative changes in EEG-fMRI may reflect improvements in epileptic symptoms.
