Noninvasive assessment of children with chronic epilepsy is often imprecise and localization of seizure foci requires intracranial electroencephalographic monitoring. Subdural electrodes provide coverage of large areas of neocortex and are ideally suited for evaluating children with intractable epilepsy and to functionally map critical cortex. This report discusses the role of subdural electroencephalography in the evaluation of childhood epilepsy. (J Child Neurol 1994; 9(Suppl):2S61-2S66).
