摘要：

The authors reviewed preoperative MRI and EEG findings in relation to postsurgical outcome in 17 patients with refractory epilepsy due to tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Resecting concordant MRI ( main tuber) and EEG abnormalities offered seizure freedom (8/9, 89%; median follow-up 25 months) comparable to other focal etiologies. Patients with nonconcordant MRI and EEG findings did less well (3/8, 38%, seizure free; p = 0.027, OR = 13).
