Resumo: Objective: To describe 3 cases in which the initial investigation did not confirm the laterality of the seizures, illustrating the false lateralization on scalp EEG on TLE/HS. Commentaries: Since the discharges of the HS are originated from the deep brain, it would spread to the contralateral side before get surface. However, the long-term stimulation of the contralateral lobe would cause lesion on this side, and seizures are triggered independently (secondary epileptogenesis). In this case, the surgery approach is not indicated. The invasive investigation, by subdural strips and video-EEG monitoring, in cases of discordance of scalp EEG and MRI, are better for the surgery indication for TLE/HS, once the operatory results in case of bilateral focus could be catastrophic. KEY WORDS: FALSE LATERALIZATION/scalp EEG; TEMPORAL LOBE EPILEPSY/hippocampal sclerosis.

KEY WORDS: FALSE LATERALIZATION/scalp EEG; TEMPORAL LOBE EPILEPSY/hippocampal sclerosis.Introdução: A epilepsia do lobo temporal Mesial (ELMT) associada à esclerose hipocampal (EH) necessita muitas vezes de tratamento cirúrgico. Para tanto, é necessário identificar um foco unilateral das crises. Na maioria das vezes, a EH visualizada à RNM se correlaciona com a origem das descargas ao EEG de escalpo. Porém, em uma minoria, o registro de descargas contralaterais ao lado da EH deixa dúvida quanto ao foco epileptogênico, cabendo aí uma investigação eletrofisiológica invasiva, mais fidedigna. Objetivo: Relatar três casos em que a investigação inicial não confirmou a lateralidade das crises, ilustrando a falsa lateralização no EEG de escalpo na ELMT/EH. Discussão: Como as descargas da EH provêm de regiões profundas do cérebro, estas poderiam se propagar para o lado contralateral antes de atingir a superfície. Por outro lado, é possível que o estímulo a longo prazo do lobo contralateral possa se transformar em uma área independente de crises (epileptogênese secundária), o que contra-indicaria a cirurgia. A investigação invasiva dos pacientes com discordância dos estudos de imagem e neurofisiológico inicial traz maior segurança na indicação operatória da ELMT/EH, uma vez que a cirurgia nos casos de foco bilateral poderia ter resultados catastróficos.

ABSTRACT Introduction: The temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) due to hippocampal sclerosis (HS) frequently needs surgery approach. For this treatment, it is necessary to identify a unilateral focus of seizures. The HS visualized by MRI usually correlates with the discharge onset on scalp EEG. However, in a few patients, contralateral discharges are registered, not correlating with the image exam. In these cases, the epileptic focus remains not clear, and an invasive eletrophysiologic study is indicated.
