From the 12th to the 15th September 1985 the International
Symposium on Methods of Presurgical Evaluation of Epileptic
Patients: Basics, Techniques, and Implications for Epileptology and
Surgical Epilepsy Therapy was held in Zurich. This symposium was a
consequence of the increasing recognition by Europeans, especially
from Ger man-speaking countries, of a growing need for surgical
therapy of epileptics. The main aim was to provide a venue for
critical review and lively discussion of presurgical eval uation
protocols, with special emphasis on the electrophysiological
aspects, including in vasive techniques. To provide a necessary
background, some basic aspects along with postsurgical results had
to be dealt with by leading experts in the different fields of ex
perimental and clinical epileptology and neurosurgery. It was
intended to be an inter national but moderately scaled meeting.
Finally, however, in addition to the European contingent, there
were participants from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Israel, Japan,
Korea, and the United States of America, including pioneers from
the surgically active centers. This international discussion was
surely facilitated by the close temporal relation ship to the
International Congresses (XIIIth World Congress of Neurology and
XVIth Epilepsy International Congress) which took place in Hamburg.
And, probably most important, is the fact that the Zurich symposium
was dedicated to Prof. Rudolf Hess and his lifelong devotion to
epilepsy diagnosis and treatment in Switzerland, as out lined in
the Honorary Address by his eminent colleague and personal friend,
Prof. Henri Gastaut.
