Abstract

Over the past half century, a number of advances have been made in surgical approaches to treating refractory temporal lobe epilepsy. This article explains some of the newer approaches and provides support for selective amygdalohippocampectomy. Appropriate preoperative workup, including various invasive monitoring techniques, is also described. © 1997, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.
