{Abstract}: Neurostimulation is an increasingly common treatment option for medically intractable epilepsy. SANTE (Stimulation of the Anterior Nucleus of the Thalamus for Epilepsy) and Responsive Neurostimulation (RNS) System are landmark neurostimulation trials that utilized either duty cycle or a responsive stimulation paradigm. A seizure-free outcome is rarely observed with responsive and duty cycle neurostimulation devices. Chronic subthreshold cortical stimulation (CSCS) is a promising treatment for adult drug-resistant epilepsy involving eloquent cortex and has demonstrated safety and efficacy. Herein, the authors describe the surgical technique as well as details of stimulation programming involved in CSCS placement to facilitate the adoption of this promising treatment.
