Human hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) is a developmental malformation often characterized by gelastic seizures that are refractory to anti-epileptic drugs.The only effective control of gelastic seizures is the surgical treatment.HH is intrinsically epileptogenic, but the mechanisms of seizure genesis operative within this subcortical lesion are unknown.Since 2003, Barrow Neurological Institute (BNI) has been developing a multidisciplinary clinical program to evaluate, diagnose, treat, counsel patients and families and study epileptogenic mechanisms with this disorder.

Over the past two decades, substantial advances in the endovascular management ofischemic cerebrovascular disease have occurred, albeit in a somewhat chaotic and fitful progression, largely as a conse
In recent years use of antipsychotics was widely debated for concerns about their safety in elderly patients affected with dementia.The aim of the present study was to make an update on the use of ant
