Abstract：
OBJECTIVE:To determine whether extended lesionectomy is needed for patients with cerebral cavernous malformations presenting with epilepsy as compared with lesionectomy. METHODS:A literature search of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Clinical Trials and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials was performed for pertinent English-language studies from 1967 to 2017. Eligible studies were selected according to uniform inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS:Seven studies including 245 patients (107 receiving extended lesionectomy, 138 receiving lesionectomy) were selected. Meta-analysis and subgroup analyses were conducted to compare extended lesionectomy with lesionectomy. Pooled analysis demonstrated that seizure outcome was not statistically significantly improved in patients who underwent extended lesionectomy compared with lesionectomy (odds ratio = 0.77; 95% confidence interval, 0.39-1.51; P = 0.44; I2 = 15%). CONCLUSIONS:Extended lesionectomy does not contribute to better seizure control for patients with cerebral cavernous malformations with epilepsy. Resection of the lesion and surrounding hemosiderin is sufficient for patients with cerebral cavernous malformations presenting with epilepsy.
