Episode Synopsis


There is a misconception that palliative means end of life care.  But that's not how we think about palliative surgery at all. Palliative surgery is when we're looking at not necessarily curing something, but alleviating something. Cook Children’s Palliative epilepsy neurosurgery explains how kids with intractable epilepsy are getting a better quality of life.
