- W2041060218 abstract "When antiepileptic drugs fail to relieve seizures adequately in children and adolescents, more invasive therapies such as epilepsy surgery and an implanted device to stimulate the vagus nerve should be considered. Temporal lobectomy is an effective treatment of complex partial and secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures arising in the mesial structures or lateral temporal neocortex. Excellent outcomes (seizure free or rare, nondisabling seizures) are achieved in at least 70% of children. The most common adverse effect is a superior quadrant field cut that is usually asymptomatic. Transient and more long-lasting language difficulties have been reported when the surgery involves the dominant temporal lobe. The excellent outcome rate for extratemporal surgery ranges from approximately 20% to 80%, with better results seen in patients with an identifiable lesion. Potential morbidity is related to the region of resected neocortex. Corpus callosotomy is an excellent procedure for palliation but is not a cure for seizures that cause falls, with substantial improvement seen in more than 80% of patients. Potential adverse effects include more intense focal seizures and dysphasia, depending on the developmental level of the individual. Hemispherectomy provides seizure relief in 60% to 80% of patients with hemispherical pathologies such as Sturge-Weber or Rasmussen syndromes. Operative mortality has been reported in the range of 0% to 6%; other morbidities include infection and hydrocephalus. Stimulation of the vagus nerve has reduced partial seizures by 50% or more in approximately one third of patients. No adverse cognitive or systemic effects are associated with use of the implanted vagus nerve stimulator." @default.
