Abstract Background Patients with both primary and metastatic brain tumors have significant seizure burden due to their tumor. The management of tumor related epilepsy (TRE) and optimizing antiepileptic drug (AED) regimen requires collaboration between neurologists and seizure specialists, which is facilitated by seizure documentation in clinic notes. We aim to describe seizure incidence in patients seen in neuro-oncology clinical practice. Further, in the subset of those patients with TRE, we aim to analyze seizure documentation. Methods This is a retrospective review of patients with a primary or metastatic brain tumor seen in a neuro-oncology clinic in October 2019. Patients with TRE were included in the analysis of seizure documentation. These notes were analyzed for inclusion of seizure descriptors, terminology, AED regimens, and changes in management. Results Of the full cohort of 356 patients, 199 (55.9%) had TRE. Anaplastic astrocytomas had the highest percentage of patients with TRE. The analysis of seizure documentation in patients with TRE revealed that the majority of notes (90.9%) mentioned seizures. Fewer notes (39.6%) provided additional descriptions of the seizures or commented on AED regimens (58.3%). In notes for patients who had seizures within the previous 6 months, seizure descriptors were more likely. Conclusions This study defines the TRE burden in a cohort of patients seen in neuro-oncology clinic. Among patients with TRE, our study shows that documentation of many aspects of the characteristics and management of patient seizures can be improved, which would facilitate further analysis of impact on patient care as well as future research.

OBJECTIVEThe purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the impact of perioperative antiepileptic drug (AED) prophylaxis on short- and long-term seizure incidence among patients undergoing brain tumor surgery. It is the first meta-analysis to focus exclusively on perioperative AED prophylaxis among patients undergoing brain tumor surgery.METHODSThe authors searched PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, clinicaltrials.gov, and the System for Information on Gray Literature in Europe for records related to perioperative AED prophylaxis for patients with brain tumors. Risk of bias in the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane risk of bias tool. Incidence rates for early seizures (within the first postoperative week) and total seizures were estimated based on data from randomized controlled trials. A Mantel-Haenszel random-effects model was used to analyze pooled relative risk (RR) of early seizures (within the first postoperative week) and total seizures associated with perioperative AED prophylaxis versus control.RESULTSFour RCTs involving 352 patients met the criteria of inclusion. The results demonstrated that perioperative AED prophylaxis for patients undergoing brain tumor surgery provides a statistically significant reduction in risk of early postoperative seizures compared with control (RR = 0.352, 95% confidence interval 0.130–0.949, p = 0.039). AED prophylaxis had no statistically significant effect on the total (combined short- and long-term) incidence of seizures.CONCLUSIONSThis meta-analysis demonstrates for the first time that perioperative AED prophylaxis for brain tumor surgery provides a statistically significant reduction in early postoperative seizure risk.
