Epilepsy Surgery :
An epilepsy surgery is a brain surgery that involves removing or disconnecting parts of the brain. In some cases, a surgeon may implant a device that blocks seizure activity in the brain. The procedure can reduce the frequency and intensity of seizures. However, an epilepsy surgery does not guarantee any results.
Epilepsy surgery is usually performed when medications do not provide relief from the symptoms. The surgery may also be performed when a non-epileptic condition such as a brain tumour is causing seizures. Before the surgery is performed, the surgeon will order a number of tests such as PET, EEG and functional MRI. These tests allow the surgeon to identify where a seizure begins in the brain. The surgery takes several hours to complete, and the patient must stay in the hospital for up to five days after the procedure. The patient can go back to work or school in three months. Most patients make a full recovery from the procedure after two years.Found 136 Doctors for Epilepsy Surgery Treatment in Hyderabad
