These data point toward a higher expression of baseline psychiatric symptoms in drug-resistant PWE without surgery. Further studies are warranted to further elucidate these findings and to clarify potential psychotropic effects of epilepsy itself, drug-resistant epilepsy and of epilepsy surgery and their impact on psychopathology. Clinically, it seems highly relevant to include psychiatrists in an interdisciplinary state-of-the-art perioperative management of drug-resistant PWE
