Abstract Objective Epileptic spasms (ES) in children carry a high risk of neurodevelopmental delay, yet predictors of long‐term surgical outcome remain incompletely defined. This study aimed to evaluate seizure outcomes following epilepsy surgery and to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative recurrence.

Abstract Objective Bilateral hippocampal compromise in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) substantially increases the risk of significant adverse memory outcomes following unilateral anterior temporal lobectomy and may contraindicate surgery. The Spatial Learning Task (SLT) of Lhermitte and Signoret (1972) is a simple object–location arbitrary associative ...

Prepare, don't scare: Rethinking cognitive readiness before epilepsy surgery
Abstract Epilepsy surgery is an effective but underutilized treatment for drug‐resistant epilepsy, and concerns about postsurgical cognitive change are a prominent barrier. Refinements in surgical technique can reduce cognitive impact, but cognitive change cannot always be avoided, and approaches carrying lower cognitive risk are often less effective ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Thyroid nodules are less common but more often malignant in pediatric patients than in adults. Our objectives were to study the features of benign vs. malignant thyroid nodules in a large pediatric patient cohort. Methods Retrospective observational cohort study. Consecutive patients aged 0.01–17.9 years at evaluation between 1997–

ABSTRACT Background Thermal ablation is increasingly used for selected thyroid nodules, but some patients subsequently require thyroidectomy. The effect of prior ablation on surgical risk, operative strategy, and histopathology remains unclear. Methods PubMed/MEDLINE, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Library were searched from inception to May 2026 for studies
