Mapping of epigenetic alterations, particularly DNA methylation, has recently been shown to offer promising perspectives in brain tumors, identifying key genes that may serve as potential diagnostic biomarkers. We aim to perform a genetic and epigenetic...
Resective Epilepsy Surgery and Respective Histopathological Diagnoses: A Retros...
Jesus-Ribeiro, Joana; Rebelo, Olinda; Bento, Conceição; Pereira, Cristina; Robalo, Conceição; Rito, Manuel; Pereira, Ricardo; Costa, José AugustoIntroduction: Over recent decades, brain resection for drug-resistant epilepsy has proven to be a valuable treatment option. The histopathological classification was of paramount value for patient management. The aims of this study were to characterize our resective epilepsy surgical series including the histopathological diagnoses and to understand the differences in clinical practice between two different per...
