Interictal functional connectivity in focal refractory epilepsies investigated by intracranial EEG

Résumé

Focal epilepsies are diseases of neuronal excitability affecting macroscopic networks of cortical and subcortical neural structures. These networks ("epileptogenic networks") can generate pathological electrophysiological activities during seizures but also between seizures (interictal period). Many works attempt to describe these networks by using quantification methods, particularly based on the estimation of statistical relationships between signals produced by brain regions, namely Functional connectivity (FC). FC has been shown to be greatly altered during seizures and in the immediate peri-ictal period. An increasing number of studies have shown that FC is also altered during the interictal period depending on the degree of epileptogenicity of the structures. Furthermore, connectivity values could be correlated with other clinical variables including surgical outcome. This leads to a conceptual change and to consider epileptic areas as both hyperexcitable and abnormally connected. These data open the door to the use of interictal FC as a marker of epileptogenicity and as a complementary tool for predicting the effect of surgery. In this article, we will review the available data concerning interictal FC estimated from iEEG in focal epilepsies and discuss it in the light of data obtained from other modalities (EEG, MEG, MRI) and modelling studies.
