The findings suggest that network evolution in the first 5 years after selective amygdalohippocampectomy surgery is related to seizure outcomes in TLE. This highlights the need to identify presurgical and surgical conditions that lead to disparate postsurgical trajectories between seizure-free and nonseizure-free patients to identify potential contributors to long-term seizure outcomes. However, the lack of including other surgical approaches may affect the generalizability of the results.
