Predictors of seizure-free outcome after epilepsy surgery for pediatric tuberous sclerosis complex
Original language description
PurposeVariable predictors of postsurgical seizure outcome have been reported in children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). We analyzed a large surgical series of pediatric TSC patients in order to identify prognostic factors crucial for selection of subjects for epilepsy surgery. MethodsThirty-three children with TSC who underwent excisional epilepsy surgery at Miami Children's Hospital were retrospectively reviewed. A total of 29 clinical, neuropsychological, electroencephalography (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and surgical variables were analyzed and related to seizure outcomes. Univariate Barnard's exact test, Wilcoxon's rank-sum test, and multivariate statistical Cox's model were used to examine the significance of associations between the variables and seizure outcome. Key FindingsEighteen patients (55%) have been seizure-free 2years after (final) surgery; postoperative complications occurred in five subjects (15%). Complete removal of epileptogenic tissue detecte
