Abstract

The results of stereotactic anterior callosotomy in patients with primary and secondarily generalized seizure, at whom epileptic focus resection was impossible, were estimated.

Stereotactic callosotomy was performed in 5 patients (there were 3 children among them) with symptomatic epilepsy. 4 patients had daily seizures, 1 — primary generalized seizures. There were no postoperative complications, all patients were discharged on the 7–8^th day after surgery. The postoperative follow-up was from 3 to 18 months, in average 11 months, one patient became seizure free, in 2 — the seizures’ frequency decreased for 90% and, in other 2 patients — for 50% and more.

The results of the research confirm that stereotactic callosotomy is a safe palliative surgical method and may recommended for patients with drug-resistant symptomatic epilepsy, at whom epileptic focus resection is impossible.
