摘要：
Gelastic seizures are known to be refractory to medical treatment and to date surgical therapy has yet to pinpoint the best treatment for these refractory seizures. There has been a multitude of case reports published on gelastic seizures and different surgical treatments, thus we performed a review of the Literature on gelastic seizures and surgical treatments to elucidate the best surgical approaches for medically refractory gelastic seizures.
