Corpus callosotomy involves partial or complete surgical disconnection of the corpus callosum. The procedure is performed in epilepsy surgery, particularly for severe motor epileptic seizures that do not improve with medication.
Indication
The indication for corpus callosotomy is complex, and the procedure should only be performed at epilepsy surgery centers[^1]. In particular, frequent episodes of atonic seizures ("drop attacks") often respond well to this procedure.
