Since deep brain stimulation (DBS) at the epileptogenic focus (in situ) denotes long-term repetitive stimulation of the potentially epileptogenic structures, such as the amygdala, the hippocampus, and the cerebral cortex, a kindling effect and aggravation of seizures may happen and complicate the cl...
