We compared the ability of subdural and depth electrodes to detect and localize interictal epileptiform discharges (IEDs) in the temporal lobe. Sixteen patients had simultaneous intraoperative recordings with depth and subdural electrodes while undergoing anterior temporal lobe resections under local anesthesia for medically intractable seizures. IEDs that were focal (detected at just 1 or 2 electrode contacts) typically registered at the nearest contact, regardless of type. IEDs that were regional (engaging more than 2 electrode contacts) typically appeared simultaneously at both electrode types. Neither method was better able to indicate whether an IED was mesial or lateral, posterior or anterior. Subdural and depth electrodes seem to provide complementary information on the location of IEDs within the temporal lobe.
