Objective To study the factors responsible for failure of hemispherotomy and outcomes of
revision surgery. The effect of the surgeon's learning curve on failures was also analyzed …

Object Hemispherotomy generally is performed in hemiparetic patients with severe,
intractable epilepsy arising from one cerebral hemisphere. In this study, the authors evaluate …

Objective Completeness as a predictor of seizure freedom is broadly accepted in epilepsy
surgery. We focused on the requirements for a complete hemispherotomy and hypothesized …

OBJECTIVE The goal of this study was to perform an analysis of a single-center experience
with hemispherotomy reoperations for refractory hemispheric pediatric epilepsy due to …

Purpose: Medically intractable epilepsy is a chronic recurrence of seizures that often
requires surgery to reduce or eliminate them. Although a reduction of seizures is the primary …

Background and Objectives Hemispheric surgery effectively treats unihemispheric pediatric
drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) by resecting and/or disconnecting the epileptic hemisphere …

Objective Hemidecortication is a therapeutic option in patients with drug-resistant structural
epilepsy. If surgery is performed early enough in left-hemispheric pathology, the plasticity of …

OBJECTIVE Hemispherectomy surgery is an effective procedure for pediatric patients with
intractable hemispheric epilepsy. Hydrocephalus is a well-documented complication of …

OBJECT Evidence in support of hemispherectomy stems from a multitude of retrospective
studies illustrating individual institutions' experience. A systematic review of this topic …

Objective This study was undertaken to determine whether the vertical parasagittal
approach or the lateral peri‐insular/peri‐Sylvian approach to hemispheric surgery is the …
