Semiologic subgroups of insulo-opercular seizures based on connectional architecture atlas.

Insulo-opercular seizures can be categorized in terms of clinical semiology and correlate with connectional architecture subregions along an anteroventral-posterodorsal axis in line with the cytoarchitectonic gradient rather than the gyral anatomy of the insula cortex. This provides new insights into facilitating differential diagnosis and presurgical localization but also highlights the importance of considering connectional architecture in determining neural correlates of complex semiologic patterns.
