Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) is a type of epilepsy that originates in the temporal lobes of the brain, which are responsible for processing sensory input and memory. People with TLE may experience seizures that can include unusual sensations, emotional changes, or even loss of consciousness. These seizures can vary in duration and intensity.
The causes of TLE can include head injuries, brain tumors, or genetic factors. Diagnosis typically involves electroencephalogram (EEG) testing and brain imaging. Treatment options often include medications, and in some cases, surgery may be considered to control seizures effectively.
