Objective Analyzing the seizure and cognitive outcome after different treatment by observation of a large group of intractable child epilepsy patients under 15 years old. Methods Collecting data of children with Intractable epilepsy from Apirl 2008 to December 2013 in Sanbo Brain Hospital, Capital Medical University. Three historical cohorts of intractable child epilepsy defined by the final treatment including medication, curative operation and palliative operation depending on the surgical assessment and the families intension was retrospectively observed. 1 year and 3 years follow-up postoperatively were conducted including seizure outcome and cognitive outcome. Results The curative operation group had significant better seizure free rate, and cognitive statement than medication group. And, the seizure free and cognitive outcome were better in palliative operation group than the medication group. Conclusions Early surgical intervention is highly recommended for intractable epilepsy chilelren in order to improve both the seizure and cognitive prognosis.
