ABSTRACT
AIM:
To evaluate the preoperative, operative, and postoperative outcomes of young and adult patients who underwent surgery for temporal lobe epilepsy related to hippocampal sclerosis (TLE-HS). MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
This retrospective study assessed prospectively registered data collected from 2010 to 2020. Clinical, electrophysiological, pathological, and postoperative outcomes were evaluated and compared. Post-surgical seizure outcome was classified into continuous seizure freeness without aura and relapse.RESULTS:
In total, 16 young and 48 adult patients with TLE-HS were included in the analysis. The clinical, electrophysiological, pathological, and postoperative outcomes were similar between the young and adult groups. However, the seizure outcome did not significantly differ between the two groups (p=0.38). A significant proportion of patients in both groups were satisfied with the surgical outcomes.CONCLUSION:
Surgery is extremely effective against TLE-HS in young patients, as in adults. Furthermore, the clinical, radiological, and pathological outcomes are similar between young and adult patients with TLE-HS.
