Complications After Epilepsy Surgery

Surgical procedures were individually designed according to the presurgical evaluation findings. Standard epilepsy surgery procedures were applied. Generally, surgical procedures were divided into curative and palliative surgery. Curative surgery included resection and disconnection of the epileptogenic zone. Palliative surgery included corpus callosotomy for bilateral synchronous onset and multiple subpial transections for epileptic foci located in the eloquent cortex. For widespread epileptogenic zones, multiple surgical techniques were combined.
