Abstract
Seizures represent a major cause of morbidity in patients diagnosed with brain tumors. Seizures in patients with gliomas are disruptive, impact on quality of life; autonomy; the capacity to operate motor vehicles and opportunities for work. The management of seizures in patients with brain tumors is complex and ideally managed in a multidisciplinary fashion. In addition to antiepileptic drugs, surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy have potential roles in the management of a glioma patient with intractable epilepsy. The successful management of seizures in patients with brain tumors is possible, it provides considerable benefits in terms of quality of life and should remain a central goal in patient management.
