Episode Epilepsy Surgery: How One Brain Procedure Stopped Years of Seizures Cover

Epilepsy Surgery: How One Brain Procedure Stopped Years of Seizures

Seizures can cause confusion, staring, convulsions and sudden behavior changes. Doctors from The University of Kansas Health System explain how epilepsy surgery and a procedure called temporal lobe resection can help some patients become seizure-free. Tony Wild shares what life was like living with epilepsy and how brain surgery changed his daily life. His epileptologist, Dr. Carol Ulloa, and neurosurgeon, Dr. Jennifer Cheng, explain how doctors find where seizures begin, what happens during temporal lobe resection, and how they protect important brain function during surgery. We also cover recovery after epilepsy surgery, what it means to regain independence, and how tissue donation through the Epilepsy Brain Bank may help advance future epilepsy research.
