Epilepsy surgery saves lives
DON’T DELAY
New research shows that children with drug-resistant seizures live longer after epilepsy surgery. The longer your child has seizures, the more devastating the consequences can be. The sooner your child has a surgical evaluation, the sooner you can understand all available treatment options.
It’s time to get informed.
IT’S TIME TO KNOW
Stop searching. Start Learning.
You need to understand the pros and cons of all your options when you’re considering brain surgery for your child. In fact, you’ll need to make a few choices:
- Whether or not to operate
- Which surgery to investigate
- Which surgeon to work with
