Cognitive outcomes after deep brain stimulation in drug‐resistant epilepsy: A comparison of anterior thalamic and hippocampal stimulation

Abstract Objective Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the anterior thalamic nucleus (ATN) and hippocampus is an emerging therapy for drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) when resective surgery is not feasible. We aimed to evaluate the long‐term cognitive outcomes of these two DBS targets, hypothesizing that both interventions preserve cognitive function ...
