The definitive guide to surgical management of epilepsy in
pediatric patients This fully revised and updated second edition of
Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery, edited by internationally renowned
pediatric neurosurgeons and epilepsy surgery experts O uz Cataltepe
and George Jallo, fills a void in the literature, encompassing the
full spectrum of topics related to the surgical treatment of
intractable epilepsy and seizures in children. The prodigiously
illustrated book and its accompanying videos feature contributions
from distinguished specialists in several different countries
across a wide range of disciplines. From epidemiology, genetics,
pathology, preoperative electrophysiological assessment and
neuroimaging to state-of-the-art surgical approaches, this
remarkable resource covers the full depth and breadth of surgical
management of pediatric epilepsy. Topics include awake anesthesia,
intracranial stimulation and mapping techniques, temporal and
extratemporal epilepsy surgery techniques, insular, multilobar and
hemispheric surgery approaches, and diverse disconnection,
neuromodulation, and ablative procedures. Insights are provided on
postoperative issues including seizure control, neuropsychological
and psychosocial outcomes, surgical failure and re-operation, and
much more. Key Features A review of topographic anatomy of the
cerebral cortex and white matter with numerous illustrations
provides enhanced understanding of eloquent anatomy. Discussion of
cutting-edge techniques such as stereo-electroencephalography,
multi-modality imaging and tractography, endoscopic and laser
ablation approaches in hypothalamic hamartomas, peri-insular
quadrantotomy, and various hemispherotomy approaches. Overview of
common cortical stimulation and mapping techniques including
magnetic and electrical stimulation modalities, functional MRI, and
the WADA test. 13 videos demonstrate seizure semiology,
stimulation, awake surgery, hemispherotomy,
amygdalohippocampectomy, and endoscopic corpus callosotomy. This
state-of-the-art resource is a must-have for epilepsy surgeons and
epileptologists. It will also greatly benefit neurosurgeons,
neurologists, clinical neuropsychologists, electrophysiologists,
neuroradiologists, residents, fellows, and medical students
involved in the assessment and surgical management of epilepsy in
pediatric patients. This book includes complimentary access to a
