Predicting seizure outcomes and functional outcomes after hemispherotomy: are we any better?

Introduction Present study attempted to analyze seizure freedom and detailed functional outcomes after functional hemispherotomy and utility of hemispherotomy outcome prediction scale (HOPS) scores in predicting outcomes. Methods Patients who underwent functional hemispherotomy were analyzed for cli...

Description
Summary:Introduction Present study attempted to analyze seizure freedom and detailed functional outcomes after functional hemispherotomy and utility of hemispherotomy outcome prediction scale (HOPS) scores in predicting outcomes. Methods Patients who underwent functional hemispherotomy were analyzed for clinical presentation, neuroimaging, seizure outcomes, and functional outcomes. Results A total of 76 procedures were performed on 69 patients. Mean age at the surgery was 8 ± 6.1 years. Fourteen patients were
