Question

The baby was born with epilepsy due to difficult labor. Can pediatric epilepsy be cured now?

Answer

Patients with pediatric epilepsy, after receiving standardized antiepileptic drug treatment, about 70% of their seizures can be controlled, with 50% to 60% of patients achieving remission after 2 to 5 years of treatment, allowing them to live and work like everyone else. Surgical treatment and neural regulation therapy can control or cure seizures in some patients with drug-resistant epilepsy, improving the prognosis of refractory epilepsy to some extent.
