functional hemispherectomy การใช้

A second type of hemispherectomy, known as functional hemispherectomy, has become more prevalent in recent years.
If a functional hemispherectomy is chosen over an anatomical hemispherectomy, it is likely because it allows for less blood loss and greater chance of resilience for the patient.
Additionally, functional hemispherectomy is less likely to cause hydrocephalus, the excessive accumulation of ( cerebrospinal ) fluid in the brain, which leads to complications from harmful pressure on brain tissues.
A case study published in 2015 of 2 adults aged 48 and 38 demonstrated the success of functional hemispherectomy in treating status epilepticus ( SE ), an epileptic condition in which seizures are prolonged or occur closely together.
