2022 Judith Hoyer Lecture in Epilepsy: Children Are Different - Advances in Early Life Epilepsy Assessment, Treatment, and Outcomes | Treatments and outcomes from epilepsy surgery are often different in children than adults. This session describes state-of-the-art care for infants and children with epilepsy, including early epilepsy surgery and epilepsy and cognitive outcomes. This session reviews differences in pediatric epilepsy care that take place in the setting of development and plasticity that need to be incorporated in care models. While much of the session focuses on epilepsy surgery, it also touches upon advances in pediatric epilepsy genetics that are transforming epilepsy care.
