Object: To evaluate whether central lobe epilepsy (CLE) surgery in the pericentral area implies inevitable function loss and to determine how postsurgical functional outcomes are perceived by the patient.
Methods: We included all 22 people with epilepsy (PWE) who received central lobe epilepsy (CLE) surgery in the pre- and postcentral gyri between 1995 and 2015 in the University Medical Center Utrecht. We determined function loss and followed-up on quality of life (AQoL-8D), mobility (Rivermead Mobility Index RMI) and self-evaluation of the surgery.
