Resolution of generalized tonic seizures following focal ablative or resective surgery

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Focal brain lesions may underlie generalized tonic seizures, as seen in Lennox–Gastaut syndrome, by engaging bilateral neural networks. However, this seizure type is often not considered surgically remediable. Here, we describe the resolution of apparent electroclinically classic generalized tonic seizures in children originating ...
