Surgery is a better treatment option than prolonged medical therapy for @entity1 with @entity1315 . Randomized trials on surgery for @entity302 are feasible and appear to yield precise estimates of the effects of surgical treatment. This study includes 56 @entity1 who underwent anterior temporal lobectomy with a mean follow-up of 11.3 years. The probability of achieving complete @entity410 freedom at 5 and 10 years is 73% and 69%, respectively. @entity1 who had discrete abnormalities (i.e., @entity5 , @entity5219 , or @entity131 ) before surgery had a significantly higher probability of achieving @entity410 freedom than did @entity1 without @entity854 . Of the 32 @entity1 , 30 (94%) had the same @entity410 status as that after surgery at the-10 year follow-up, and 2 (6%) had recurrent @entity410 . Of the @entity410 -free @entity1 , 16 (29%) had ceased taking antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) at the 5-year follow-up, and 8 (25%) had ceased taking the drugs at the 10-year follow-up. In this paper, the evolution of the understanding of @entity1315 surgery has been discussed. The efficacy of @entity1315 surgery remains controversial with regard to the chois of resection method that would provide the best results for @entity410 freedom and cognitive function. The @entity410 outcomes obtained after selective amygdalohippocampectomy were found to be similar to those obtained after temporal lobe resection in several studies, and there is considerable evidence for indicating that the neuropsychological outcomes obtained after selective amygdalohippocampectomy are better than those obtained after temporal lobe resection. No significant relationships were found between objective indices of change and subjective ratings for postoperative memory function. A new surgical method based on multiple subpial transections for the hippocampus was developed in 2006. It remains unclear whether mesial resection involving a larger area leads to better @entity410 outcomes.
