Epilepsy Surgery

Epilepsy Surgery

Epilepsy Surgery is a medical procedure designed to alleviate seizures in individuals with epilepsy, a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. When medications fail to control seizures, surgery becomes a viable option. The goal of epilepsy surgery is to identify and remove the brain tissue responsible for triggering seizures or to disrupt the pathways that propagate seizure activity. Before surgery, thorough evaluations, including brain imaging, EEG monitoring, and neuropsychological assessments, are conducted to pinpoint the precise location of the seizure focus and to assess the potential impact of surgery on cognitive functions. There are different surgical approaches, such as resective surgery, where the epileptic tissue is removed, or disconnective procedures that sever the pathways causing seizures. Advancements in technology, such as functional MRI and stereotactic techniques, have significantly improved surgical precision and reduced risks. The success rate of epilepsy surgery varies depending on factors like the type of epilepsy and the accuracy of identifying the seizure focus. While risks exist, including infection or neurological deficits, many individuals experience a significant reduction in seizure frequency or complete seizure freedom post-surgery, leading to improved quality of life for suitable candidates. It remains a carefully considered option for those whose seizures are unresponsive to conventional treatments.
