In this study, epilepsy patients undergoing amygdala ablation were invited for assessments of PTSD symptoms and biomarkers before and 6 months after surgery. The first paper shows an improvement in PTSD symptoms and biomarkers in two patients with epilepsy and PTSD.
The study was funded by the Brain and Behavior Research Foundation (2019-2022, PI van Rooij) and was conduced in collaboration with the Department of Neurosurgery (Dr. Jon Willie and Dr. Dan Drane).
