A short review is presented of the mental impairment and personality deficits of persons with severe epilepsy and of their consequences, that require psychosocial and occupational rehabilitation, as well as of some aspects of health economics related to epilepsy surgery. It is concluded that detailed studies on the psychosocial outcome of epilepsy surgery are rather rare in the vast literature on epilepsy surgery, a situation that needs to be changed in order to promote better understanding of the therapeutic and palliative surgical treatment of epilepsy, to develop and broaden it, and to motivate more financial support from health authorities.
本文简要回顾了重症癫痫患者的精神障碍和人格缺陷及其后果，这些都需要心理社会和职业康复，同时也回顾了与癫痫手术相关的一些卫生经济学方面。得出的结论是，在大量关于癫痫手术的文献中，对癫痫手术心理社会结果的详细研究相当少见，这种情况需要改变，以便更好地理解癫痫的治疗性和姑息性手术治疗，发展和拓宽这一领域，并促使卫生当局提供更多资金支持。
