Posterior two‐thirds corpus callosotomy in the semisitting position: Technical advantages and outcomes in drug‐resistant epilepsy

The semisitting posterior callosotomy technique appears to offer favorable anatomical access and gentle tissue handling, with no intraoperative complications in this limited series. Although these preliminary findings are encouraging, further studies should determine its broader applicability and long-term outcomes. This approach may warrant consideration as a surgical option in selected patients with drop attack-dominant epilepsies.

Abstract

The semisitting posterior callosotomy technique appears to offer favorable anatomical access and gentle tissue handling, with no intraoperative complications in this limited series. Although these preliminary findings are encouraging, further studies should determine its broader applicability and long-term outcomes. This approach may warrant consideration as a surgical option in selected patients with drop attack-dominant epilepsies.
