The enigma of reflex eating epilepsy: A cohort study of 50 patients with insights from multimodal evaluation
EE is a disabling form of reflex epilepsy with heterogeneous clinical, EEG and neuroimaging features, which are not necessarily substrate-specific. Findings from our study point to the presence of a wide epileptogenic network prominently involving perisylvian regions. Treatment outcomes in drug-refractory EE remain suboptimal, and further studies are needed for a better understanding and management of this complex entity.
