This episode delves into a recent study published in Neurologia medico-chirurgica (2026) that compares stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) with subdural electrode implantation for presurgical epilepsy evaluation. The abstract highlights a retrospective review of 83 patients, analyzing target regions, complications, and surgical outcomes. Key findings suggest similar seizure freedom rates between the two modalities, but SEEG demonstrated a trend towards fewer serious complications and was particularly useful in complex cases, including those involving the insular gyrus or prior implants. This information is crucial for clinicians considering the optimal intracranial monitoring technique for drug-resistant epilepsy.
