Seizure outcomes following epilepsy surgery in pediatric and young adult patients with high‐grade brain tumors: Results from a European survey
Epilepsy surgery is effective for medically refractory epilepsy in children with high-grade central nervous system tumors and should be considered early, as seizure freedom is achieved in the majority of patients. Despite involving numerous epilepsy centers, only 25 patients were recruited, indicating that this method is rarely considered for high-grade brain tumor patients with medically refractory epilepsy.
