Of the roughly 500,000 US children with epilepsy, 30% will continue to have seizures despite medication management. This seizure burden can have significant impacts on a child’s development, school performance, social life, sports participation, driving ability, mental health, and more. In this episode, we talk about surgical approaches to drug-resistant epilepsy and explore some of the newest advances in neurosurgery with Benjamin Kennedy, MD, an attending neurosurgeon and the Director of Epilepsy and Functional Neurosurgery in the Division of Neurosurgery at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.
