Epilepsy surgery began in China from the 1950s to the 1960s, after the People's Republic of China was established (hereinafter as China). However, its rapid growth occurred in recent 10 years with the implement of reform and open policy. The growth is mainly manifested in basic and clinical aspects.

Object naming in epilepsy and epilepsy surgery
Epilepsy & Behavior, 2015The ability to express oneself verbally is critical for success in academic, occupational, and social domains. Unfortunately, word-finding or "naming" difficulty is the most common cognitive complaint among individuals with temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), and a substantial body of work over the past several decades has documented naming impairment in ...

Approximately 60% of all patients with epilepsy suffer from focal epilepsy syndromes. In approximately 15% of these patients, the seizures are not adequately controlled with anticonvulsive drugs, and such patients are potential candidates for surgical treatment and majority are children. Epilepsy surgery in children, who have been carefully chosen, can

In their JNNP paper, Gooneratna et al 1 review long-term studies of three surgical therapies for pharmacoresistant focal epilepsy: vagal nerve stimulation, which provides the most evidence, anterior thalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (ANT DBS) and cortical responsive stimulation (CRS).

Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1988
The various surgical methods used in the management of epilepsy are reviewed. Intracranial recording procedures such as epidural and subdural recording are presented as well as their main indications, advantages and inconveniences. Emphasis is placed on the techniques of intracranial recording used at the Montreal Neurological Institute, namely chronic

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1995
Epilepsy surgery is capable of stopping seizures or markedly reducing their frequency in selected patients with medically refractory epilepsy. Presurgical evaluation, as currently practiced, requires concordance among a battery of localizing tests. Cost-effectiveness is increasingly important in the development of optimal presurgical protocols and ...

Epilepsy & Behavior, 2013
The impact of health and disease has led many artists to depict these themes for thousands of years. Specifically, epilepsy has been the subject of many famous works, likely because of the dramatic and misunderstood nature of the clinical presentation. It often evokes religious and even mythical processes. Epilepsy surgical treatment has revolutionized

Uncontrolled epilepsy is associated with progressive cortical and hippocampal atrophy, substantial cognitive and psychosocial morbidity, and increased mortality. Seizure freedom is required to reverse such morbidity and mortality. Surgery is vastly superior to medical therapy for patients with chronic, refractory temporal lobe seizures, and is now the ...

Principles of Surgery for Epilepsy
1990The pre-requisite conditions for surgical treatment of epilepsy are: ineffective pharmacotherapy, the unacceptable nature of the seizures and the presence of an organic brain lesion as the basis of the disease. The principles of surgery stem from knowledge of the anatomicofunctional structure and evolution of the epileptic process, which indicate the ...

Preparing for epilepsy surgery
Seizure, 1993Preparation for epilepsy surgery should assure that both patient and supporters understand the diagnostic and surgical procedures undertaken. Also essential is consideration of psychosocial concerns. This can be done by integrating discussions of psychosocial issues with evaluations of emotional readiness for surgery as part of a pre-surgical education
