1 The American Approach to Depth Electrode Insertion December 4, 2012 Jonathan Miller, MD Director, Epilepsy Surgery University Hospitals Case Medical Center/Case Western Reserve University Cleveland, Ohio American Epilepsy Society Annual Meeting

2 Disclosure None American Epilepsy Society Annual Meeting 2012

3 Learning Objectives After this session, participants will gain an understanding of SEEG technique and indications American Epilepsy Society Annual Meeting 2012

4 The Goal of SEEG Localization of the Epileptogenic Zone

5 The Goal of SEEG Localization Symptomatogenic Zone of the Irritative Zone Lesion Epileptogenic Zone Seizure Onset Zone Eloquent Tissue

6 The Goal of SEEG Semiology Symptomatogenic Zone MRI PET Lesion Localization of the Epileptogenic Zone Irritative Zone Seizure Onset Zone Eloquent Tissue Interictal EEG Ictal EEG Ictal SPECT fmri WADA Neuropsych.

7 The Goal of SEEG Localization Symptomatogenic Zone of the Irritative Zone Epileptogenic Zone Seizure Onset Zone SEEG Lesion Eloquent Tissue

8 EEG vs. SEEG EZ

9 EEG vs. SEEG EEG EZ

10 EEG vs. SEEG EEG Subdural Grids EZ

11 EEG vs. SEEG EEG Subdural Grids EZ Depth Electrodes

12 EEG vs. SEEG No activity Ictal/interictal activity Eloquent cortex EZ

13 History of SEEG

14 History of SEEG

15 History of SEEG

16 History of SEEG

17 Modern Era: MRI Targetting

18 SEEG Strategies 1. Multi-target SEEG Identify epileptic structures 2. 3D-SEEG Delineate epileptogenic & eloquent zones

19 SEEG Strategies 1. Multi-target SEEG Identify epileptic structures Non-lesional Temporal Lobe Epilepsy: - Hippocampus - Amygdala - Temporal neocortex - Temporal pole - Mesial frontal lobe - Insula - Posterior cingulate gyrus - Posterior temporal lobe 2. 3D-SEEG Delineate epileptogenic & eloquent zones

20 SEEG Strategies 1. Multi-target SEEG Identify epileptic structures 2. 3D-SEEG Delineate epileptogenic & eloquent zones

21 Choose entry point to cover area of interest Can enter from any direction to sample tissue of interest Additional depth electrodes may be added in second stage Multi-Target SEEG

22 SEEG Strategies 1. Multi-target SEEG Identify epileptic structures 2. 3D-SEEG Delineate epileptogenic & eloquent zones

23 3D-SEEG Surround area of interest using threedimensional grid Can enter from any direction; parallel electrodes may be easier to interpret

24 Framed Stereotaxy

25 Framed Stereotaxy arc ring y z x

26 Framed Stereotaxy Ring less limited than arc (-30º to 210º) (30º to 150º) arc ring y z x

27 Positioning Supine (Prone) = from front (back) Lateral = from side

28 Positioning Supine (Prone) = from front (back) Lateral = from side

29 Positioning Ring perpendicular to electrode path Supine (Prone) = from front (back) Lateral = from side

30 Frame Placement Placed low to maximize trajectory options

31 Frame Placement Simultaneous bilateral placement: tilt frame toward dependent side

32 Frame Placement Simultaneous bilateral placement: tilt frame toward dependent side

33 Fluoroscopy Verify correct placement Determine depth of placement

34 Implantation 3 mm stab incision, 2.7 mm drill

35 Implantation 3 mm stab incision, 2.7 mm drill Open dura with monopolar cautery

36 Implantation 3 mm stab incision, 2.7 mm drill Open dura with monopolar cautery Advance stylet to target under x-ray

37 Implantation 3 mm stab incision, 2.7 mm drill Open dura with monopolar cautery Advance stylet to target under x-ray Place anchor bolt Place electrode

38

39 Postoperative Processing Postoperative volumetric CT (1 mm) Fused with preoperative MRI Contour electrodes Anatomic definition of EZ Can import into frameless stereotaxy for resection

41 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder

42 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder Posterior Cingulate Posterior Temporal Mesial Frontal Hippocampus Head Hippocampus Body Amygdala Temporal Tip

43 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder Seizure onset zone: Posterior Temporal No activity Interictal Ictal Eloquent

44 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder Additional electrodes placed around active contacts to delineate epileptogenic zone No activity Interictal Ictal Eloquent

45 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder No activity Interictal Ictal Eloquent

46 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder No activity Interictal Ictal Eloquent

47 Case Example 32 year old RH man Seizures: déjà vu aura, dialeptic, automotor Etiology: unknown (imaging normal) Location: left temporal (Sp1>P7) Related medical conditions: bipolar disorder Pathology: Cortical Dysplasia

48 Case Example 57 year old RH woman Seizures: visual aura, aphasia Etiology: cavernous angioma Location: left temporal (Sp1) Related medical conditions: migraine

49 Case Example 57 year old RH woman Seizures: visual aura, aphasia Etiology: cavernous angioma Location: left temporal (Sp1) Related medical conditions: migraine Cavernous angioma

50 Case Example 57 year old RH woman Seizures: visual aura, aphasia Etiology: cavernous angioma Location: left temporal (Sp1) Related medical conditions: migraine Mesial temporal structures Anterior, Posterior, Superior, Inferior, and Lateral to Cavernous Angioma

51 Case Example 57 year old RH woman Seizures: visual aura, aphasia Etiology: cavernous angioma Location: left temporal (Sp1) Related medical conditions: migraine Seizure onset zone only in hippocampus (not perilesional) No activity Interictal Ictal Eloquent Lesion

52 Case Example 57 year old RH woman Seizures: visual aura, aphasia Etiology: cavernous angioma Location: left temporal (Sp1) Related medical conditions: migraine Seizure onset zone only in hippocampus (not perilesional) No activity Interictal Ictal Eloquent Lesion

53 Conclusions Standard stereotactic techniques are used for implantation Goal is improved anatomic delineation of epileptogenic zone; hypothesis is important Provides anatomic information that can be helpful to guide surgical resection
