Altered recovery from inhibitory repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in subjects with photosensitive epilepsy

Photosensitive epilepsy (PSE) is the most common reflex epilepsy characterized by seizures induced by intermittent photic stimulation, with a high tendency towards generalization from occipital cortex (Harding et al., 2005). Only few studies have explored the pathophysiology of PSE; some Authors have suggested a defective visual inhibition as a contributing factor to photoparoxysmal response (Strigaro et al., 2012), pointing to an overactive visuomotor connectivity thus inducing abnormal motor responses (Strigaro et al., 2015).
