Early Surgical Therapy for Drug-Resistant Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
JAMA 307:922-930,966,985, Engel,J.,et al, 2012
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Among patients with newly intractable disabling MTLE, resective surgery plus AED treatment resulted in a lower probability of seizures during year 2 of follow-up than continued AED treatment alone. Given the premature termination of the trial, the results should be interpreted with appropriate caution.
