pubmed:abstractText
Intracranial stereotactic EEG recordings (SEEG) in presurgical epilepsy assessment are currently carried out in our department. The SEEG method generally used for exploration can also be used to perform radiofrequency thermocoagulations (RFTC) of the epileptic foci. To assess the indications of the RFTC procedure in the therapeutic arsenal of drug-resistant epilepsies, we report the results obtained in 41 patients to whom RFTC was proposed as a first therapeutic step before surgery or as a palliative treatment when surgery was not possible.
