Endocrinopathies in a Pediatric Patient Post-anatomical Hemispherectomy for Rasmussen's Encephalitis Treatment: A Case Report.

Hemispherectomy is a neurosurgical procedure that is frequently performed in pediatric patients diagnosed with Rasmussen's encephalitis. Postoperative complications include immediate complications such as hydrocephalus and hemorrhage and behavioral complications such as language impairments and contralateral weakness. However, there are limited studies or case reports that address the potential endocrinopathies associated with this and other pediatric epileptic surgeries.
