Abstract Objective Use of neuromodulation strategies targeting thalamic nuclei, including deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS), for treatment of pediatric drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) is increasing, despite limited evidence for efficacy and safety. We present the initial results from the Comparative Multicenter Evaluation

Perils and progress in epilepsy surgery utilization: Twenty‐five years later
Abstract More than 25 years have passed since the first randomized controlled trial (RCT) established that surgery is superior to continued anti‐seizure medication (ASM) for drug‐resistant temporal lobe epilepsy, and nearly as long since a joint practice parameter urged that appropriate surgical candidates be referred to a specialized center for ...

Abstract Objective Although the centromedian nucleus of the thalamus (CM) is an increasingly considered deep brain stimulation (DBS) target for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE), there is significant variability in programming practices, which may contribute to heterogenous outcomes.

Absence seizures: Update on signaling mechanisms and networks
Abstract Absence seizures (AS) are a hallmark of genetic generalized epilepsies (GGE), characterized by brief episodes of impaired consciousness accompanied by electroencephalographic spike‐and‐wave discharges (SWDs). Traditionally attributed to cortico‐thalamo‐cortical (CTC) dysrhythmia, emerging evidence suggests a more intricate pathophysiological ...

Epilepsy surgery: From bench to the clinics
Abstract Objective Recent advances in epilepsy surgery in patients with intractable epilepsy make it possible to study the mechanism of epilepsy in human brains. However, the true extent and propagation of each epileptogenic area from the epileptogenic focus in each patient is still difficult to perform “epilepsy cure” by surgery.
