Pediatrics - Managing Super-Refractory Status Epilepticus with Multimodal Therapy

This episode reviews a case report published in Child's Nervous System in 2026, detailing a novel approach to pediatric super-refractory status epilepticus (SRSE). The full text of the report focuses on a pediatric patient who underwent a combination of selective amygdalohippocampectomy, vagus nerve stimulation, and anterior corpus callosotomy after failing conventional treatments. We discuss the rationale behind this aggressive, multi-modal strategy and its potential implications for managing extremely difficult-to-treat epilepsy in children.
