Abstract:
We analyse clinical characteristics, presurgical investigations, surgical procedures and outcome of 137 patients operated-on for a drug-resistant partial epilepsy, in Grenoble from January 1990 to December 1993. Moreover we present data of 63 patients suffering from a "pure" temporal lobe epilepsy selected using the following criteria: 1. surgery limited to temporal lobe structures 2. totally cured after surgery (Engel's class la).
