This chapter provides a synthetic overview of the topics treated in this issue. Presurgical diagnostic procedures are schematically described and an analysis of surgical results is made in comparison with those obtained from other epilepsy surgery groups. Surgical complications linked both to invasive presurgical diagnostic procedures and therapeutic surgical acts are described. Finally, the creation of new epilepsy surgery centres is suggested on the basis of epidemiological data, which demonstrate the discrepancy among the patients operated on at present and those who could benefit from the surgical treatment.
