Researchers learned that in a survey population of patients with epilepsy who required surgical treatment, 68% of patients returned to regular driving post-surgery. Of the 148 patients in the survey population, 78 patients returned the questionnaire. A pre-surgical history of driving on a regular basis and Engel Class I outcome post-surgery were associated with significantly higher rates of good driving outcomes. Intracranial electroencephalography prior to resection was associated with worse driving outcomes.
