Scalp EEG does not predict hemispherectomy outcome
BACKGROUND Functional hemispherectomy is effective in carefully selected patients, resulting in a reduction of seizure burden up to complete resolution, improvement of intellectual development, and developmental benefit despite possible additional neurological deficit. Despite apparent hemispheric pathology on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or other imaging tests, scalp electroencephalo...

The accuracy of the technique is due to the ...
متن کاملHemispherectomy: Indications, Surgical Techniques, Complications, and Outcome
Surgical removal of a pathological, almost non-functional cerebral hemisphere is a relatively old concept in neurosurgery [1]. The evolution of hemispheric surgery from resection to disconnection techniques, along with a number of technological advances (light microscope, microneurosurgical tools, magnetic resonance imaging, neuro-navigation) resulted into significantly faster and less invasive...
متن کاملOutcome of corneal transplantation: can a prioritisation system predict outcome?
BACKGROUND In 1995 a prioritisation system for patients waiting for corneal transplantation surgery was adopted in British Columbia. In 1997 a routine outcome assessment programme was adopted. The authors sought to determine the outcomes of corneal transplant surgery in the province of British Columbia and to evaluate if they were associated with waiting list prioritisation. METHODS Since May...
متن کاملLaparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. Can preoperative factors predict conversion?
OBJECTIVE To determine if preoperative clinical, laboratory and radiology data can predict conversion of laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis to open procedure. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 44 laparoscopic cholecystectomies were performed for acute cholecystitis between August 2000 and July 2002 at King Khalid University Hospital, Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Data rel...
