title: Epilepsy. Outcome patterns in epilepsy surgery--the long-term view.
abstract: Predicting response to therapy in individual patients with epilepsy is not straightforward. An exploration of long-term surgical outcomes in an epilepsy cohort has identified seven patterns of remission and relapse, and the probability of each outcome has been calculated. The study provides new predictors of postoperative outcomes in epilepsy.
