1
Methods: The authors studied 40 consecutive patients undergoing ATL for refractory epilepsy.
2
OBJECTIVEAppropriately chosen candidates with medically refractory epilepsy may benefit from hemispheric disconnection.
3
KD is effective against refractory epilepsy, but its precise mechanism is obscure.
4
Possibility of MCDs should be considered during the evaluation of refractory epilepsy cases.
5
Epilepsy surgery is a rewarding therapeutic alternative for patients with medically refractory epilepsy.
6
Brain stimulation with low-frequency is emerging as an alternative treatment for refractory epilepsy.
7
Medically refractory epilepsy is associated with significant morbidity and mortality.
8
Methods: A total of 303 patients with refractory epilepsy after epilepsy surgery were included.
9
Twenty-four patients with refractory epilepsy were treated with mexiletine as an additional antiepileptic drug.
10
Lamotrigine is a newer antiepileptic drug useful as oral adjunctive therapy in refractory epilepsy.
11
Psychiatric comorbidity is an important concern in patients with refractory epilepsy and may be undertreated.
12
In our series, MTS was the most common finding in refractory epilepsy after CNS infections.
13
Conclusion: Prolonged interictal EEG monitoring is mandatory in the successful management of patients with refractory epilepsy.
14
Objective: Medically refractory epilepsy is amenable to neurosurgical intervention if the epileptogenic focus is accurately localized.
15
We report one such case of PQD presenting with refractory epilepsy, which was diagnosed on MRI.
16
Methods: In a prospective cohort study, patients with medically refractory epilepsy undergoing epilepsy surgery were recruited.
