While conventional rTMS stimulators activate only superficial cortical areas, reaching deep epileptic foci, for example in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), is possible using specially designed H-coils. We report the results of rTMS in a young adult with pharmacoresistant bilateral TLE who underwent three courses (of 10, 15, and 30 daily sessions) of unilateral rTMS over the hemisphere from which seizures originated most often. Seizure frequency was assessed before and after each block of rTMS sessions, as was the tolerability of the procedure. Seizure frequency declined significantly, by 50 to 70% following each rTMS course. All sessions were well-tolerated.en-USEEG, electroencephalogramFDA, Food and Drug AdministrationMMSE, Mini-mental State ExamMRI, magnetic resonance imagingMT, motor thresholdrMT, resting MTTLE, temporal lobe epilepsyTMS, transcranial magnetic stimulationrTMS, repetitive TMSTranscranial magnetic stimulationEpilepsyNeuromodulationJournal Article2016-05-0210.1016/j.ebcr.2016.03.001
