| Summary: | Medical manipulations on epileptic patients are associated with risk of occurrence of seizures. However, such risk is often overestimated. In 902 epileptic patients examined, only 3 epileptic seizures were recorded, which have occurred during surgical intervention under general anesthesia.

The issues of epileptic patients’ preparation for elective surgery are discussed. |
