Abstract
This brief review summarizes presentations at the Temporal Lobe Club Special Interest Group session held in December 2022 at the American Epilepsy Society meeting. The session addressed newer methods to treat temporal epilepsy, including methods currently in clinical use and techniques under investigation. Brief summaries are provided for each of 4 lectures. Dr Chengyuan Wu discussed ablative techniques such as laser interstitial thermal ablation, radiofrequency ablation, focused ultrasound; Dr Joon Kang reviewed neuromodulation techniques including electrical stimulation and focused ultrasound; Dr Julia Makhalova discussed network effects of the aforementioned techniques; and Dr Derek Southwell reviewed inhibitory interneuron transplantation. These summaries are intended to provide a brief overview and references are provided for the reader to learn more about each topic.
