An Applied Anatomic Guide to Anterior Temporal Lobectomy and Amygdalohippocampectomy: Laboratory Cranial and White Matter Dissections to Inform Surgical Practice.

White matter dissections, cadaveric cranial dissections, and intraoperative images are put together to provide a simplified stepwise surgical manual for anterior temporal lobectomy. Laboratory investigations that focus on the intricate 3-dimensional relationships of the pertinent operative anatomy from the surgeon's eye may enrich anatomic knowledge and push surgical boundaries, to minimize complication rates and ultimately improve patient outcomes.
