“…Evidence includes impaired performances observed on neurocognitive measures such as complex problem-solving tasks (e.g., Wisconsin Card Sorting Test) and generative fl uency measures (Hermann & Seidenberg, 1995 ;Kim, Lee, Yoo, Kang, & Lee, 2007 ;Martin et al, 2000 ). Similar fi ndings have also recently been reported in children (Rzezak, Fuentes, Guimaraes, et al, 2007 ). Preliminary work has shown that patients with successful seizure control following TL resection may show signifi cant improvement on these tasks Martin et al, 2000 ), suggesting that these distributed networks are functioning better in the absence of electrophysiological disruption.…”

“…Do they result from (i) ''interruption'' of normal connections between temporal and extratemporal structures (due to direct temporal cortical dysfunction), as proposed by Hermann in an attempt to explain executive dysfunction in TLE or (ii) interference between these normal connections and a more extended, pathological, epileptogenic network connecting the temporal and frontal lobes (allowing the temporal epileptogenic zone to affect the frontal and prefrontal regions), as suggested by Rzezak [Hermann and Seidenberg, 1995;Rzezak et al, 2007]?…”

“…A gravidade da disfunção executiva nos pacientes com EMJ não foi avaliada previamente. Neste estudo, utilizamos o critério clínico de Rzezak et al 31 com o qual determinamos que 83,33% dos pacientes com EMJ apresentavam disfunção executiva moderada ou grave. Desta forma, é importante ressaltar que além das diferenças qualitativas, há diferenças quantitativas no comprometimento cognitivo 31 Nosso estudo corrobora ainda a presença de traços de personalidade impulsivos nos pacientes com EMJ, demonstrado anteriormente.…”

[10][11][12][13][14][15][16] O uso do ITC nos permitiu pormenorizar o perfil impulsivo destes pacientes caracterizado por maior necessidade de buscar novidades, dificuldade em manter rotinas assim como dificuldades na capacidade de organização para atingir metas.…”
