Resumo(s)
Periventricular nodular heterotopias (PNHs) are malformations of cortical development. These are frequently associated with drug-resistant epilepsy. Stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) is usually part of the epilepsy pre-surgical evaluation in order to find the epileptogenic zone (EZ). SEEG-guided radiofrequency-thermocoagulation (RF-TC) has been used to ablate or disrupt the EZ and proved to be effective, with seizure freedom rates of 38-50%, a responder rate of 81% and a favorable safety profile.
