Temporal lobe disconnection in drug-resistant epilepsy associated with hippocampal sclerosis: how I do it
摘要
Background
Epilepsy surgery is the treatment of choice for drug-resistant epilepsy associated with hippocampal sclerosis. Patients over 50 years of age have an increased risk of postoperative complications after epilepsy surgery.
MethodsThe authors present an operative video demonstrating right temporal lobe disconnection in a case of hippocampal sclerosis, along with an anatomical introduction and a section providing strategies to minimize complications.
ResultsIn selected cases, temporal lobe disconnection represents a viable alternative to resective procedures.
