Tailored Ant Temporal Lobectomy:Relation Between Extent of Resec of Mesial Structures & Postsurg Sz Outcome
Arch Neurol 52:173-178, Kanner,A.M.,et al, 1995
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
These data suggest that in patients with an anterotemporal seizure focus, the sparing or limited resection of amygdala and/or hippocampus is not necessarily associated with a poor seizure outcome,as had been previously suggested,provided that the decision not to resect is based on the absence of epileptiform activity during intraoperative electrocorticography or during recordings with depth electrodes.
