Pages

  518-525

Abstract

 Background: This study aimed to compare the cognitive functions (memory, executive function, language, and intelligence) and quality of life in patients with treatment-resistant Frontal lobe epilepsy before and after frontal lobe Surgery. Methods: The present research was a longitudinal study in which patients were followed up one to three years after Surgery. The statistical population included all patients with treatment-resistant Frontal lobe epilepsy referred to Ayatollah Kashani Center in Isfahan, Iran, who underwent Surgery. 24 patients were selected by convenience sampling method, and completed the Wechsler Memory Scale-Third Edition (WMS-III), the Tower Of London (TOL), the Persian Aphasia Naming Test (PNT), the Persian Diagnostic Aphasia Battery (AQ), the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale-Revised (WAIS-R), and the Quality of Life in Epilepsy Inventory (QOLIE-89) before and after Surgery. The data were analyzed using paired t-test in SPSS software. Findings: The rate of seizures after Surgery (1. 02 ± 0. 89) decreased compared to before it (4. 29 ± 3. 08) (P = 0. 001). Compared to before Surgery, patients significantly improved in working memory (P = 0. 010), temporal performance in language (P = 0. 050), executive functions (P = 0. 010), intelligence quotient (IQ) function, especially operational intelligence (P = 0. 001), and quality of life (P = 0. 05) after Surgery. Moreover, there was no significant difference between patients' performance before and after Surgery in general executive, general memory, and verbal intelligence. Conclusion: Frontal lobe epilepsy Surgery has a positive effect on some functions, and does not have any negative effect on some functions at least. Therefore, Frontal lobe epilepsy Surgery can be a good option for people with treatment-resistant Frontal lobe epilepsy.
