Abstract
Based on the experience gained with surgical treatment of 658 epilepti c patients the authors discuss 7 cases of late diagnosis of gliomas of the temporal lobe. Cessation of the attacks after stereotaxic cryodes tructions for 6 months to 6 years does not exclude that tumor may grow . The occurrence of new foci of neurological symptoms is prognosticall y unfavourable.
