Abstract: Objective The purpose of the study was to investigate effective surgical procedure for perirolandic epilepsy and the predictor for good outcomes.Method We collected 21 subjects who underwent epilepsy surgeries consecutively in Beijing Institute of Functional Neurosurgery with the epileptogenic zone located in perirolandic areas from October 2006 to March 2008.Over 12 -month following up and Engel Ⅰ and Ⅱ taken as “good” outcomes,we analyzed the predicting factors for good outcomes.Results At the end of follow up,Engel class Ⅰ and Ⅱ were 14 cases(67% ).Patients with lesion in MRI obtained better outcomes and patients with focal cortex dysplasia(FCD) pathology obtained worse outcomes regarding the rate of Engel class Ⅰ + Ⅱ( P < 0.05).There were no serious functional deficits.Conclusions Surgical resection of epileptogenic zone for periroladic epilepsy can achieve good outcomes.Patients with lesion in MRI predicted better outcomes and FCD pathology predicted worse outcome.
