Article Synopsis
  • Electrical stimulation mapping with depth stereo-EEG electrodes is crucial for diagnosing drug-resistant epilepsy before surgery.
  • Despite being utilized since the 1960s, there is no standardized protocol for this technique, leading to varying practices across different countries.
  • The study reviews current opinions on the method's significance, compares different schools' methodological approaches, and assesses its effectiveness in pinpointing epileptogenic zones in patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study looked at how well patients recover their language skills after having brain surgery for a type of tumor on the left side of the brain.
  • Researchers tested 59 patients' language abilities before surgery, right after, and several months later to see how they changed.
  • They found that while some patients didn't recover well, better immediate language mapping during surgery helped with recovery, especially in areas like understanding sentences and using verbs.
