1 Fig. 1 Seizure outcome of the 42 patients after 2 years according to Engels’ classification.
From: Lateralizing semiology predicts the seizure outcome after epilepsy surgery in the posterior cortex Brain. 2002;125(10): doi: /brain/awf236 Brain |

2 Fig. 2 Proportion of patients who became seizure free in relation to the presence (+, black column) or absence (–, grey column) of lateralizing semiology. None of the patients (out of a total of nine) with neither lateralizing auras nor lateralizing seizures became seizure free.

3 Fig. 3 Estimated probabilities based on the proportions of lateralized seizures and auras of patients who became seizure free and those who were not seizure free. The prediction was correct for the seizure‐free patients if the predicted probability (pp) was >0.5. The closer the pp value of each patient approaches the value 1, the higher the estimated probability of becoming seizure free. The prediction was correct for the non‐seizure‐free patients if the predicted probability was <0.5. The closer pp approaches the value 0, the higher the estimated probability of not becoming seizure free. Four seizure‐free patients (x) were falsely estimated not to be seizure free and three patients with persistent postoperative seizures (y) were falsely predicted to become seizure free.

4 Fig. 4 Proportion of seizure‐free patients in relation to the type of lesion (histological findings). The number of seizure‐free patients in relation to the total number is given in parentheses.
