This study will elucidate treatment outcomes of stereotactic radiofrequency thermal coagulation (RFTC) for drug-resistant focal epilepsy and the preoperative factors associated with these outcomes. As a preliminary step to validate the efficacy of RFTC compared to standard therapy, the goal is to define an appropriate patient population and build a foundation for more successful future clinical trials.

Information will be collected on the following items for the tests and evaluations performed.
Preoperative examination:
(1) Basic patient demographics, Epilepsy type, Seizure type, Etiology of epilepsy, Seizure frequency, Medical history
(2) Neuropsychological tests: intellectual, memory, developmental index
(3) Brain MRI, anonymized imaging data
(4) FDG-PET, anonymized image data
(5) Functional MRI diagnosis
(6) Long-term video-EEG monitoring: seizure symptoms, interictal epileptiform discharges, and ictal epileptiform discharges
(7) Magnetoencephalography findings
(8) Intracranial EEG: technique (subdural electrodes, SEEG), seizure onset zone, distribution of interictal epileptiform discharges, findings of functional mapping
Treatment (RFTC) information:
(1) Planned treatment area (epileptogenic area), volume of planned treatment area
(2) Software used for treatment planning
(3) Equipment used for treatment
(4) Number of punctures planned, number of coagulations, total volume of coagulations
(5) Number of punctures performed, number of coagulations, extent of treatment, surgical technique (skin incision, craniotomy)
(6) Surgical complications
Outcome information:
(1) Seizures and complications during the acute postoperative period (1 week)
(2) Seizure outcome (ILAE classification), complications, brain MRI, anonymized imaging data after 1, 3, 6 months of treatment
(3) Seizure outcome, complications, date of seizure recurrence, antiepileptic drugs, and neuropsychological examination after 1 year of treatment
(4) Treatment extent and volume on MRI after 1 year of treatment, anonymized imaging data
(5) Seizure outcome and complications after 2 years of treatment
(6) Seizure outcome, complications, antiepileptic drugs, and follow-up period at the last follow-up
To identify postoperative seizure outcome and complications. To examine the relationship between etiology, treatment volume, treatment rate of lesions, treatment site and seizure outcome.
