Hemispherectomy is a specialized epilepsy surgery in which most or all of one cerebral hemisphere is disconnected from the functioning brain. It may be considered for patients with severe, drug-resistant epilepsy arising predominantly from one side of the brain, particularly when seizures significantly affect daily life. The procedure aims to prevent abnormal electrical activity from spreading to the healthy hemisphere. Depending on the underlying condition, different techniques may be used, including functional hemispherectomy or hemispherotomy.
