“…Electromagnetic source imaging (ESI/MSI) is currently not considered as standard in presurgical evaluation [25]. Nevertheless, it has been recognized as a useful tool especially when phase 1a investigations are inconclusive [73][74][75]. Clinical position paper and on ESI and a Clinical Practice Guideline for recording and analysis of spontaneous cerebral activity are available from the American Clinical Magnetoencephalography Society [76,77].…”

Purpose of review To review the current practices and evidence for the diagnostic accuracy and the benefits of presurgical evaluation. Recent findings Preoperative evaluation of patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsies and subsequent epilepsy surgery leads to a significant proportion of seizure-free patients. Even those who are not completely seizure free postoperatively often experience improved quality of life with better social integration. Systematic reviews and meta-analysis on the diagnostic accuracy are available for Video-electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electric and magnetic source imaging, and functional MRI for lateralization of language and memory. There are currently no evidence-based international guidelines for presurgical evaluation and epilepsy surgery. Summary Presurgical evaluation is a complex multidisciplinary and multiprofessional clinical pathway. We rely on limited consensus-based recommendations regarding the required staffing or methodological expertise in epilepsy centers.

Wie auch im letzten Jahr möchten wir gemeinsam Ihnen mit diesem Editorial einen Rückblick auf das Jahr 2018 sowie einen Ausblick für das kommende Jahr geben. Für das Jahr 2019 stehen die Themenhefte bereits fest, und der Gedanke einer deutsch-österreichisch-schweizerischen Zusammenarbeit spiegelt sich auch zum Teil in der Autoren-und Herausgeberschaft der einzelnen Hefte wider. Heft 1 liegt in Ihren Händen: Schlaf und Epilepsie unter der Gastherausgeberschaft von Herrn Dr. med. Berthold Voges aus Hamburg und von Herrn Prof. Dr. med. Ramin Khatami aus Barmelweid in der Schweiz. Heft 2 beschäftigt sich mit besonderen Aspekten der Kinderepileptologie, und Gastherausgeber sind Herr Priv.-Doz. Dr. med. Thomas Bast aus Kork und Frau Dr. med.
