Cutting The Bridge Between The Brain Halves

Wisconsin rates for HCPCS 61541

Opens the skull and divides the thick band of nerve fibers connecting the left and right halves of the brain. Cutting that bridge stops seizure activity from spreading from one side to the other, which can dramatically reduce sudden drop attacks and severe generalized seizures. It is used for epilepsy that has not responded to medication and where the seizures do not come from a single removable spot.
