Revision Surgeries After Failed Hemispherectomy: Difficult Disconnections

Some areas of the brain are difficult to disconnect. This session at the 2017 Pediatric Epilepsy Conference and Family Reunion, with speaker Dr. James Baumgartner, Surgical Director, Epilepsy, at the Florida Hospital for Children, addresses which brain conditions make it difficult to secure complete disconnection, how to determine if there are missed connections if seizures return after initial disconnective/resective surgery, the use of diffusion tensor imaging to map missed connections, and its reliability.
