Background: Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an adjunctive therapy for patients with drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE) excluded from ablative surgery or who have had such surgery with no optimal outcome. In this study, we provide an analysis of efficacy, side effects and seizure outcomes after VNS implantation for patients with DRE.
