Changes in Cortical Architecture Associated with Glioblastoma Associated Epilepsy

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Emerging evidence suggests both local hyper-excitability promoting epilepsy, and synaptic and paracrine mediated integration of Glioblastoma into brain-wide neural networks. In this study we sought clinical evidence of disease progression, and concurrent radiological evidence of differences in remote cortical architecture, in Glioblastoma patients with and without epilepsy.
