Long-term seizure outcome and mobility after surgical treatment for Rasmussen encephalitis in children: A single-center experience

Brenda Cristina Nava et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the results of surgical treatment for Rasmussen Encephalitis (RE) and found that hemispherectomy is a safe and effective treatment method that can improve motor functionality and control seizures. Early surgical intervention should be considered once medical refractoriness has been established.

Medical treatment of Rasmussen's Encephalitis: A systematic review

S. Lagarde et al.

Summary: Rasmussen's encephalitis is a severe and rare inflammatory brain disease that leads to destruction of one hemisphere and loss of neurological function. It is associated with immune system involvement, and the diagnosis is based on clinical, electrophysiological, and MRI criteria. Antiseizure medications are usually ineffective, and hemispherotomy is the most effective treatment. Immunotherapies targeting the immune system are recommended for patients in the early stages or with mild disease progression.

Seizure Outcomes and Reoperation in Surgical Rasmussen Encephalitis Patients

Swetha J. Sundar et al.

Summary: This study retrospectively analyzed long-term seizure outcomes and reoperation rates in Rasmussen encephalitis (RE) patients who underwent hemispherectomy. The study found that complete disconnection of the diseased hemisphere had a positive impact on seizure-freedom and reduced the need for reoperations. Shorter preoperative duration of hemiparesis, shorter duration of epilepsy, and preoperative bilateral MRI abnormalities were associated with an increased risk of reoperation.
