Supraorbital craniotomy for focal frontal epilepsy via eyebrow incision and guided by in situ stereo-EEG electrodes: illustrative case
The authors present a case of frontopolar FCD-associated epilepsy resected using a supraorbital craniotomy via eyebrow approach. We highlight the utility of leveraging previously placed sEEG electrodes for intraoperative ECoG, resulting in gross-total resection and seizure freedom a year postoperatively. https://thejns.org/doi/10.3171/CASE25428.
