Incidental Detection of Hippocampal Sclerosis on MR Images:Is It Significant? AJNR 20:1609-1612,1575, Moore,K.R.,et al, 1999 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract The hippocampus was normal in 205 patients; in the remaining two patients we identified one or more primary determinants for hippocampal sclerosis. Subsequent retrospective chart review revealed that both patients had had previously diagn osed seizure disorders. The imaging determinants of hippocampal sclerosis are not prevalent in nonepileptic patients. Incidental identification of hippocampal sclerosis on MR images is uncommon and significant, and should prompt further clinical investig ation to exclude a seizure disorder.
