    This study introduces a safe and simple method for chronic subarachnoid electrode implantation in epilepsy patients. The technique offers a valuable diagnostic tool, bridging the gap between conventional electroencephalography and stereoelectroencephalography.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Epileptology
    • Neurophysiology

    Background:

    • Epilepsy diagnosis often requires advanced neurophysiological monitoring.
    • Conventional electroencephalography (EEG) has limitations in localizing seizure foci.
    • Stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) is invasive and complex.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of chronic subarachnoid electrode implantation for epilepsy monitoring.
    • To assess the diagnostic utility of this minimally invasive technique.
    • To compare its capabilities with conventional EEG and SEEG.

    Main Methods:

    • Chronic implantation of 13-19 flexible subarachnoid electrodes in 17 epilepsy patients.
    • Bicoronal burr-holes and fluoroscopic guidance for electrode placement.

  • Bilateral, symmetrical electrode placement targeting cortical areas for 10 days.

    • Main Results:

    • Successful implantation in all patients with no reported morbidity.
    • Enabled study of multi-focal activity, inter-foci dependence, and responses to stimulation, barbiturates, and sleep.
    • Demonstrated the technique's ability to capture detailed electrophysiological data.

    Conclusions:

    • Chronic subarachnoid electrode implantation is a safe and simple diagnostic method.
    • This technique serves as an intermediate diagnostic option between conventional EEG and SEEG.
    • It provides valuable insights into epileptic network dynamics.
