title: [Epilepsy surgery--what is required from anesthesiologist].
abstract: The review contains brief description of modem anesthetic approaches used in intractable epilepsy surgery. The authors describe main types of neurosurgery operations for intractable epilepsy, as well as the basic anesthetics and anesthetic plans and their influence on the intraoperative ECoG. Another issue raised is awake craniotomy - an anesthetic method with intraoperative emergence for verbal contact between patient and psychologist. We conclude that epilepsy surgery is one of the neurosurgery fields where anesthesiologist can significantly affect the outcome of the operation.
