Question

What are the treatment methods for congenital epilepsy?

Answer

Current treatment methods for congenital epilepsy include medication, surgical treatment, and neural regulation therapy. With standardized anti-epileptic drug treatment, about 70% of patients can have their seizures controlled, with 50% to 60% of patients recovering from 2 to 5 years of treatment and returning to normal work and life. For refractory epilepsy that is difficult to control with medication, surgical and neural regulation treatments can help some patients control or cure seizures, improving the prognosis.
