Purpose: The Wada test is still the gold standard procedure to predict language and memory deficits before temporal lobe epilepsy surgery. As amobarbital was no longer available, our aim was to validate propofol as an alternative.
Method: We retrospectively studied 47 patients who underwent a bilateral intracarotid procedure, performed with amobarbital (18), or propofol (29), between 2000 and 2010 during the preoperative evaluation of temporal lobe epilepsy.
