Abstract
We reviewed the current RF-ablation technique for mTLE and complications relating to the procedure. RF-ablation of the amygdalohippocampal complex (AHC) is a stereotactic technique, performed under local anesthesia, which achieved long-term seizure-free clinical seizure outcomes in 71% of mTLE patients. Occipital access is used and thermolesions are made from a single trajectory in the long axis of the AHC. RF-ablation has shown a low complication rate and clinical seizure outcomes seem to be comparable with open surgical techniques.
