    Abstract:
    Basing on a follow-up study till 27 years of a group of 50 young patients suffering on medically refractory complex partial epilepsy which were treated by temporal lobectomy the author has reached a complete seizure-free result in 66% of them. A critical evaluation of the transient disadaptation syndrome and of a permanent amnesic syndrome in a part of them as well as psychometric memory tests have been performed. The pathophysiological interpretation of the results and selection criteria for the efficient temporal lobectomy have been proposed.
