Screening for major depression in epilepsy with common self-report depression inventories.

abstract：PURPOSE:The occurrence of psychiatric symptoms after temporal lobectomy is well documented. The aim of the present study was to identify preoperative factors that predict postoperative psychiatric outcome. METHODS:We studied the case notes of 121 patients (from an initial sample of 167) who underwent temporal lobectom...
