Epilepsy is a chronic brain disease. Its symptoms are seizures, convulsions, loss of control over body parts, and even loss of consciousness. Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological diseases. According to the World Health Organization, about 50,000,000 people suffer from it.

Treating epilepsy means preventing seizures.
The first step is medications, antiepileptic drugs. They are different in different cases, but up to 30% of patients do not respond to medications at all.
The second method is surgical - removal of the area of ​​the brain from which the impulses of seizure activity originate.

The third method is the reduction of epileptic impulses through electrical action, stimulation of brain cells. And it is already being successfully used in Turkey.

There is another method of treating epilepsy with neurostimulators. This method is more common and a little more practical. In the human body there is a vagus nerve that runs through the neck. Turkish doctors place a stimulator on this nerve.

This stimulator suppresses the activity of the vagus nerve on the same principle, and thus controls epileptic seizures. Its name is Vagal Nerve Stimulator, abbreviated as VNS in English.

This method is quite effective, especially in childhood epilepsy. Minimally invasive surgical technique.

What is a neurostimulation system?

To perform DBS, Turkish doctors must find the desired area of ​​the brain. It can be quite deep, and at the same time small. It is necessary to place the electrode in this area.

This electrode is connected to a power generator, which is placed in the patient's chest area. The generator is located under the skin and is not visible from the outside.

As for the VNS method, this operation is very effective and quite simple for doctors. The vagus nerve runs through the neck from the brain to the body. Turkish doctors open this nerve completely and place an electrode in the form of a spiral around it.

Good neurosurgeons are able to describe what they do in understandable words. It seems simple and clear. But their field of work is one of the most difficult areas of medicine. Perhaps this is why it can be difficult to get treatment from neurosurgeons in many countries.
