The purpose of this study was to evaluate the long-term clinical effects of this surgery for epileptic seizure, including the effects on mental state and motor skills. Patients and Methods : Case 1 was a 4-year-old boy whose epilepsy first occurred 2 weeks after birth. The seizures were ...
(2) hemiparesis. These complications are more common after one-stage, complete commissurotomy than after two-stage procedures or partial commissurotomy and probably are caused by prolonged retraction of one hemisphere during surgery. Long-term complications may include stuttering and poorly coordinated ...

In conclusion, further modified hemispherectomy in patients with infantile hemiparesis and medically refractory epilepsy has markedly ameliorated the effects on epilepsy control and prevention of superficial cerebral hemosiderosis in the long-term follow-up.Conflict...
However, more recent investigations — often involving a meticulous analysis of short and long term behavioral sequelae — rather provides evidence against the existence of any simple relation between early lesions and increased compensational capacity....
