Up to 88% of patients with low grade glioma (LGG) experience seizures during the course of their disease. In patients who undergo surgery for supratentorial low grade glioma (SLGG), post-operative seizures can impact their quality of life and complicate the post-operative management course. Evidence suggests that epileptic activity can be related to tumour progression. In addition to the extent of resection, recent studies have investigated the possible patient and tumour factors which can influence post-operative seizure control in patients with SLGG.
高达88%的低级别胶质瘤(LGG)患者在病程中会出现癫痫发作。在接受幕上低级别胶质瘤(SLGG)手术的患者中,术后癫痫发作会影响他们的生活质量,并使术后管理过程复杂化。有证据表明,癫痫活动可能与肿瘤进展有关。除了切除范围外,最近的研究还调查了可能影响SLGG患者术后癫痫控制的患者和肿瘤因素。
