ABSTRACT
Epilepsy surgery is effective in 30-82% of patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. However, risk factors of unfavorable outcomes after epilepsy surgery require further study. OBJECTIVE:
To evaluate risk factors of favorable and unfavorable long-term postoperative outcomes in patients with drug-resistant epilepsy. MATERIAL ANDMETHODS:
Postoperative outcomes in a large cohort of patients with epilepsy are reported for the first time in the Russian Federation. There were 271 patients with drug-resistant scheduled for surgery. Preoperative examination and surgical treatment were carried out between January 1, 2014 and December 12, 2019 at the Evdokimov Moscow State University of Medicine and Dentistry and Sklifosovsky Research Institute for Emergency Care. We used Engel grading system to assess postoperative outcomes after 12, 24, 48 and 60 months. We distinguished favorable (Engel I-II) and unfavorable (Engel III-IV) outcomes and analyzed the factors influencing postoperative results in these patients.RESULTS:
There were 319 surgical procedures in 271 patients (217 primary resections, implantation of vagus nerve stimulator in 31 patients, 9 redo resections and 8 radiosurgical procedures). Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) was found in 162 (60%) patients, «dual pathology¼ - in 118 (44%) cases. In 12 months after surgery, favorable outcomes (Engel l-II) were observed in 69% of patients (n=148), after 24 months - in 71% (n=127) of patients. Postoperative complications occurred in 6 (1.9%) patients. There was no mortality. The earlier onset of epilepsy (p=0.01), multifocal (p=0.002) and bilateral lesions (p=0.0038) were the most significant risk factors of unfavorable postoperative outcomes.CONCLUSION:
Surgical resection is effective approach for drug-resistant epilepsy.Palavras-chave
