Brain perfusion, hippocampal volumetric, and diffusion-weighted imaging findings in children with prolonged febrile seizures and focal febrile seizures

Conclusion: Children with FSE and FFS had comparable hippocampal volume and brain perfusion to healthy children. However, one child with FSE had hippocampal malrotation and another had diffusion restriction. The study findings need to be interpreted in the context of small sample size, and lack of follow-up neuroimaging.
