lüll The natural history of epilepsy in the era of new antiepileptic drugs and surgical treatment Sander JWEpilepsia 2003[]; 44 Suppl 1 (ä): 17-20PURPOSE: To review the factors influencing prognosis of epilepsy in this era of antiepileptic drugs and surgical treatment. METHODS: Systematic review of peer-reviewed literature. RESULTS: The prognosis depends on many factors; aetiology, age of onset, number of seizures at onset, the natural history of the condition, and the influence of treatment. However, between 70 and 80% of people developing epilepsy will go into long-term remission, usually within the first 5 years. DISCUSSION: Prognosis in epilepsy is the prospect of attaining complete seizure freedom once a pattern of recurrent epileptic seizures has been established. Well-designed prospective cohort studies using standard outcome measures need to be conducted, especially in non-Western cultures.|Anticonvulsants/*therapeutic use[MESH]|Epilepsy/*drug therapy/*surgery[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Prognosis[MESH] |
