DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2018.04.492
Abstract: Introduction Rasmussen encephalitis is a rare hemispheric inflammatory disease with progressive course leading to intractable focal seizures and neurological deficits, which can evolve to epilepsia partialis continua, hemiplegia, aphasia and other symptoms. Neuroimaging classically reveals… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.pediatrneurol.2020.07.016
Abstract: BACKGROUND Autopsy studies in Rasmussen encephalitis reveal areas of sparing within the affected hemisphere. Clinical progression and inflammation are milder with an older onset. We sought to demonstrate radiological corroboration for these patterns. METHODS In… read more here.
