When seizures continue despite appropriate medicines, surgery may be considered. The copy explains evaluation, expectations and why patient selection is the heart of epilepsy surgery.
Who Should Ask
Patients with repeated seizures despite medication, side effects or injuries from seizures should discuss advanced evaluation.
Evaluation
The team studies seizure history, EEG, MRI and functional areas before deciding whether surgery can help.
Goal
The aim may be seizure freedom, seizure reduction or safer seizure control depending on the seizure source and brain function.
