Abstract
The responsive neurostimulator system has become increasingly popular in the surgical management of refractory epilepsy, with targeting of various thalamic nuclei showing promising results in select patients. A 42-year-old female presented for evaluation of refractory epilepsy consisting of generalized tonic-clonic and focal seizures with preserved awareness. Phase I and II monitoring suggested multifocal bilateral epilepsy with bilateral frontal onset, and the patient underwent robot-guided bilateral centromedian thalamic placement of the RNS System. In this operative video, the authors share their institutional experience and protocol utilizing the ExcelsiusGPS robot in the placement of the RNS System in the thalamus.
