    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Epilepsy is a neurological disease, where up to 40% of patients, known as having refractory epilepsy, do not become seizure-free through antiepileptic drugs (AEDs). Epilepsy surgery has the highest possibility of treating patients with refractory epilepsy, however, many are never referred to surgical evaluation. READ MORE
