Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Techniques

Part 1: Evidence in pediatric epilepsy surgery1. Evidence in pediatric epilepsy surgeryChurl-Su Kwon and Varun Ramanan Subramaniam2. Controversies in the timing of pediatric epilepsy surgery-is earlier better?Jarod L. RolandPart 2: Invasive investigation3. Electroencephalographic evaluation of epileptogenicity-traditional versus novel biomarkers to guide surgeryEroshini Swarnalingam and Julia Jacobs4. Invasive monitoring: stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) versus subdural electrode (SDE) versus hybrid evaluationTaylor J. Abel, Luis Fernandez and Joseph GarciaPart 3: Resective or ablative surgery5. Intraoperative adjuncts to optimize the surgical treatment of drug-resistant epilepsy-do new tools improve outcome?Trang Tran, Frederic Leblond and Roy W.R. Dudley6. Medial temporal lobe epilepsy-selective amygdalohippocampectomy versus anterior temporal lobectomyChristian Dorfer7. Epilepsy in eloquent cortex: resection versus responsive neurostimulationSaadi Ghatan8. Lesional epilepsy: lesionectomy versus ECoG-guided resectionShimrit Sibony-Uliel and Jonathan Roth9. Insular/perisylvian epilepsy: Open resection versus stereotactic ablation (MR-guided laser ablation/radiofrequency thermocoagulation) versus responsive neurostimulationVincent Joris, Jessica Royer and Alexander G. WeilPart 4: Hypothalamic hamartoma10. Hypothalamic hamartoma-open surgery versus endoscopic surgery versus stereotactic radiosurgery versus stereotactic ablation (MR-guided laser ablation/Radiofrequency ablation) versus MRFUSSantiago Candela-Canto, Roberto Martinez Alvarez and Jose Hinojosa Mena-BernalPart 5: Tuberous sclerosis complex11. Resective surgery in tuberous sclerosis complex-related epilepsy: tuberectomy and tuberectomy plusShuli Liang, Zhirong Wei, Jiaqi Wang and Feng ZhaiPart 6: Disconnective procedures12. Functional hemispheric surgery-vertical versus lateral approachJia-Shu Chen, H. Westley Phillips and Aria Fallah13. Minimally invasive hemispherotomy-endoscopic, radiofrequency and robotic techniquesPoodipedi Sarat Chandra and Manjari Tripathi14. Lobar/multilobar epilepsy: resection versus disconnectionVejay N. Vakharia and Martin M. Tisdall15. Corpus callosotomy: anterior two-thirds (two-stage) versus complete (one-stage)Meena Vessell and Robert J. BolloPart 7: Neuromodulation16. Temporal lobe epilepsy with preserved function: multiple hippocampal transection versus neuromodulation (deep brain stimulation, responsive neurostimulation)Logan Massman and Sean Lew17. Neuromodulation: comparison of vagus nerve stimulation, deep brain stimulation, and responsive eurostimulationNebras M. Warsi, Hrishikesh Suresh and George M. Ibrahim
