In clinical practice this framework requires the clinician to think broadly in terms of the range of deficits that can be associated with focal-onset epilepsies, including temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) and frontal lobe epilepsy (FLE). Pre-surgical decision-making has traditionally focused on the localization and lateralization of function, which is seemingly juxtaposed to the network approach., admin,
