Mayo Clinic neurosurgeons discuss the various types of epilepsy surgery. Visit https://mayocl.in/2DT8wMS to learn more about epilepsy care at Mayo Clinic or to request an appointment.

The most common procedure is the removal of the anterior temporal lobe for patients with drug-resistant focal epilepsy. Some epilepsy surgeries directly eliminate the spot in the brain where seizure is coming from and others indirectly work to minimize or eliminate seizure. The key to successful epilepsy surgery comes down to localization, or the ability for a medical team to pinpoint the exact origin or source of the seizures within the brain. Responsive neurostimulators may be an option for patients whose seizure point may be identified, but are not in an area that can be safely removed. Additionally, vagus nerve stimulators or deep brain stimulation may be options in order to prevent seizures. There are other types of procedures designed to identify the exact pinpoint by recording activity within the brain.

Ultimately, patients should consult with a neurosurgeon and care team to discuss the right type of surgery for their specific type of epilepsy. Mayo Clinic in Arizona, Florida and Minnesota are all Level 4 Epilepsy Centers, with the most advanced diagnostic and treatment options available. Mayo Clinic neurosurgeons work with teams of other specialists in order to create a treatment plan that is individualized for each patient.
