    AbstractImproved tumor and epilepsy treatment requires long-term care of patients with symptomatic epilepsies caused by tumors. Pathophysiology, epidemiology, prognosis, drugs, and surgical treatment are discussed with special emphasis on seizure control, side effects, and quality of life. Because of the long-term course -- often 10 to 20 years -- optimal treatment strategies have to be selected individually. These should consider possibilities of new techniques of co-registering imaging and electrophysiology, surgery, and the interaction of anticonvulsive and chemotherapeutic drugs, cognition, and mood.
