Abstract
Cerebral commissurotomy has often been reported to control seizures in patients suffering from intractable epilepsy. However, in adults, division of the corpus callosum alone has been shown to be equally effective while considerably reducing the surgical morbidity. The present study of nine epileptic callosotomized patients suggests that callosal section can also be performed successfully and safely in children. Neurologic and concomitant psychological improvements are described.Entities:
