techniques are offering new hope for people with
"intractable" epilepsy — recurring
seizures that cannot be controlled by medicine

sections of the brain that cause the seizures.
Though most epilepsy can be controlled by medication,
surgery essentially offers a cure for long-suffering
patients. Full
