“…These include inflammatory, infectious, and dysplastic aetiologies, as well as mesial sclerosis and tumours of all cerebral lobes, the pituitary gland, mammillary bodies and the third ventricle (Tassinari et al, 1991; Munari et al, 1995; Kuzniecky et al, 1997). Although mesial temporal lobe sclerosis was not suggested to be an aetiology of GS based on earlier studies, (Tassinari et al, 1991), later series have shown a predominance of mesial sclerosis, ranging from 12.5 to 21% (Kovac et al, 2015; Gutierrez et al, 2016). In our series, the percentage was smaller (7.4%), suggesting that this preponderance in previous studies is most likely related to the reference bias associated with VEEG.…”

“…Routine (interictal) recordings range from normal EEG results to multiple interictal epileptiform features demonstrating generalized, multifocal, and/or focal discharges and suggesting that EEG is not a specific test for the diagnosis of HH‐epilepsy disorders (Scholly et al, ). Ictal recordings may be variable too, though GS show no obvious ictal changes in the majority of events (Gutierrez et al, ), non‐GS may show epileptic activity mainly in frontal and temporal lobes (García‐Morales et al, ; Scholly et al, ).…”

“…It is now recognized that they are not pathognomonic of HH and can be found in temporal or extratemporal, lesional or non-lesional epilepsy, mostly in adults [2], [3], [4]. However there is a growing body of evidence of such cases in children [5], [6].…”
