title: Congenital and Acquired Conditions of the Mesial Temporal Lobe: A Pictorial Essay.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Our goal is to pictorially review a wide spectrum of congenital and acquired conditions affecting the medial aspect of the temporal lobe.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  After completing this article, the reader will have knowledge of the imaging appearance of diverse developmental, malformative, and acquired lesions of the mesial temporal lobe, which will be useful when evaluating pathology in this location.
