Corpus callosum stimulation produced by chronically implanted electrodes, placed either by craniotomy or stereotactically, failed to control refractory generalized epilepsy in humans and also in experimentally produced penicillin epilepsy in cats. However, the patients that suffered craniotomy, frontal lobe retraction or pneumoencephalograms, without callosal section, showed remarkable improvement of their seizure condition due to these unspecific manipulation effects. Stereotactic anterior callosotomy emerged as a sequel of these functional neurosurgical findings, and as an alternative procedure to preclude undesirable neuropsychological and neurological side effects of split brain syndrome and of brain retraction, associated to conventional callosotomy. Ten patients with various disabling convulsive disorders have undergone this new operation, which showed to be less traumatic and better tolerated than open callosotomy.

Corpus callosum stimulation and stereotactic callosotomy in the management of refractory generalized epilepsy: preliminary communication
