Effectiveness and Safety of Epilepsy Surgery for Pediatric Patients with Intractable Epilepsy: A Clinical Retrospective Study from a Single-Center Experience.
Introduction: Pediatric epilepsy surgery is an effective treatment modality for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE). Early pediatric surgery yields favorable results for DRE in terms of seizure control and neurophysiological outcome. In this study, pediatric patients were categorized based on their age (above 3 years old and below 3 years old) to demonstrate the effectiveness and safety of surgical procedures.
Methods: In this retrospective, single-center study, 60 pediatric patients who underwent epilepsy surgery at Istanbul Faculty of Medicine between 2002 and 2018 were evaluated. Overall morbidity and mortality rates, as well as seizure outcomes of the patients, were assessed and compared based on two age groups: those aged 3 years old or younger and those older than 3 years old. The effectiveness of invasive monitoring was also evaluated in relation to pathological results. The postoperative seizure outcome rates were evaluated using Engel's classification, with an average follow-up period of 8.7 years.
Results: Out of the total number of patients, 47 (78.4%) underwent resective surgery, while 13 (21.6%) had palliative surgery. Ten patients (16.6%) had invasive monitoring. Among all patients, 34 were classified as Engel I and II (56.6%), while 26 were classified as Engel III and IV (43.4%) postoperatively. 47% of patients who were under 3 years old, 60.4% of patients who were over 3 years old, and 50% of patients who underwent invasive monitoring had a favorable seizure outcome (Engel I-II). Postoperative morbidity and mortality rates were 35% (n = 21) and 1.6% (n = 1), respectively.
Conclusion: Pediatric epilepsy surgery is an important treatment modality for preserving cognitive abilities and providing effective treatment for pediatric DRE. In our study, we claim that both invasive monitoring and epilepsy surgery lead to favorable seizure outcomes for all age groups. Further clinical studies should be conducted to provide more reliable data on the safety and effectiveness of the surgery, particularly in patients under the age of three.
期刊介绍：
Articles in ''Pediatric Neurosurgery'' strives to publish new information and observations in pediatric neurosurgery and the allied fields of neurology, neuroradiology and neuropathology as they relate to the etiology of neurologic diseases and the operative care of affected patients. In addition to experimental and clinical studies, the journal presents critical reviews which provide the reader with an update on selected topics as well as case histories and reports on advances in methodology and technique. This thought-provoking focus encourages dissemination of information from neurosurgeons and neuroscientists around the world that will be of interest to clinicians and researchers concerned with pediatric, congenital, and developmental diseases of the nervous system.
