What should I do if my child has epilepsy?

Patient's question:

When the child has a seizure, the limbs twitch, the mouth is, the eyes are, and there is phlegm in the throat. Do you need to have surgery?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, it is a pleasure to answer your question for you: The main treatment method for epilepsy surgery is to safely remove the brain tissue that causes epilepsy seizures, known as the epileptic focus (the seizure onset zone). Only by removing the epileptic focus can postoperative seizure-free status be achieved. The premise for surgical success is the accurate identification of the epileptic focus preoperatively, which requires the collaborative effort of a highly specialized evaluation team and a neurosurgical team. It is important to actively cooperate with the doctor in the treatment.
