PurposeThis study aimed to explore seizure semiology and the effects of intracerebral electrical stimulation on the human posterior cingulate cortex (PCC) using Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) to deepen our comprehension of posterior cingulate epilepsy (PCE). MethodsThis study examined the characteristics of seizures through video documentation, by assessing the outcomes of intracranial electrical stimulation (iES) during SEEG. We further identified the connection between the observed semiology and precise anatomical locations within the PCC subregions where seizure onset zones (SOZ) were identified. ResultsAnalysis was conducted on 59 seizures from 15 patients recorded via SEEG. Behavioural arrest emerged as the predominant manifestation across the PCC subregions. Where ictal activity extended to both the mesial and lateral temporal cortex, automatism was predominantly observed in seizures originating from the ventral PCC (vPCC). The retrosplenial cortex (RSC) is associated with complex motor behaviour, with seizure discharges spreading to the temporal lobe. Seizures originating from the PCC include axial tonic and autonomic seizures. Only one case of positive clinical seizures was documented. High frequencies of iES within the PCC induced various clinical responses, categorised as vestibular, visual, psychological, and autonomic, with vestibular reactions primarily occurring in the dorsal PCC (dPCC) and RSC, visual responses in the left RSC, and autonomic reactions in the vPCC and RSC. ConclusionThe manifestations of seizures in PCE vary according to the SOZ and the patterns of seizure propagation. The occurrence of seizures induced by iES is exceedingly rare, indicating that mapping of the PCC could pinpoint the primary sector of PCC.
