| Abstract | A keyhole surgical approach for the treatment of medically intractable temporal lobe epilepsy is described. Additionally, patients who had keyhole surgery are contrasted with individuals who underwent a non-keyhole approach for outcome parameters of seizure freedom, complications, and speed of recovery. Patients who had a keyhole approach for temporal lobe epilepsy with over 2 years follow-up were compared with all patients who had selective amygdalohippocampectomy performed in a non-keyhole fashion over the same time period. Rates of seizure freedom were comparable in the 17 patients with keyhole surgery and the 34 individuals who had a non-keyhole approach. However, patients treated with keyhole surgery were discharged from the hospital earlier than non-keyhole patients (p=0.04), and with a shorter operative time (p=0.0001). The restricted keyhole surgical exposure has not limited the ability to perform surgery for temporal lobe epilepsy with favorable results on reducing the seizure tendency, and patients may be benefited by a minimal access technique with a more rapid recovery from surgery. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
