Drug-resistant epilepsy: Definition, pathophysiology, and management
There are currently >51 million people with epilepsy (PWE) in the world and every year >4.9 million people develop new-onset epilepsy. The cornerstone of treatment in PWE is drug therapy with antiseizure medications (ASMs).

Second‐hit DEPDC5 mutation is limited to dysmorphic neurons in cortical dysplasia type IIA
Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) causes drug‐resistant epilepsy and is associated with pathogenic variants in mTOR pathway genes. How germline variants cause these focal lesions is unclear, however a germline + somatic “2‐hit” model is hypothesized.

Drug Resistance and Resistance Mechanisms in Epilepsy
Epilepsy is a commonly encountered disorder among neurological disorders in our country and in the world. Almost 30% of seizures persist in spite of medical treatment. Resistance to medical treatment is important with regard to cognitive and psychosocial problems, and increased risk in mortality and morbidity. It may emerge due to the type of epilepsy,
