Stereoelectroencephalography in the Presurgical Evaluation of Focal Epilepsy: A Retrospective Analysis of 215 Procedures

Abstract: SEEG is a useful and relatively safe tool in the evaluation of surgical candidates when noninvasive investigations fail to localize the epileptogenic zone. SEEG-based resective surgery may provide excellent results in particularly complex drug-resistant epilepsies.

“…To better define the EZ and detect the propagation of seizures in selected cases, invasive EEG techniques have been developed. SEEG has gained popularity these years because it facilitates precise recordings from deep cortical and subcortical structures, multiple noncontiguous lobes, and bilateral explorations while avoiding the need for large craniotomies [12]. The working basis of SEEG is anatomo-electro-functional hypothesis that is typically generated during the presurgical consultation conference based on the results of the former noninvasive tests [13].…”
