Core Tip The main finding of this case series of patients treated surgically for bilateral occipital lobe epilepsy is that bilateral resection during a single operation was a very effective treatment, with the vast majority of patients (85%) free of disabling seizures at 5 years after neurosurgery and no patients exhibiting no worthwhile improvement. Two interesting additional observations in this study were a reduction in the number and sizes of facial sebaceous adenoma lesions in one patient and the resolution of drug-resistant psoriatic lesions in another patient after surgery.
