#PubAlert! Here's a new case report from M4 Laura Swanson! @lcswanson2
Unexpected pain with electrocortical stimulation in a teenager with temporal encephalocele https://t.co/d7m0w4Nx0w

[Laura Swanson, MD, PhD @lcswanson2]

Our report is out in @EpilepsyReports! Temporal encephaloceles are an under-recognized cause of TLE & respond well to surgery. This case highlights an impt relationship between encephalocele & a nearby structure w/ impt implications for surgical planning.
