Operate Now: Epilepsy Surgery

Operate Now: Epilepsy Surgery is your most challenging surgery yet in the Operate Now series! In this game, you take on the role of a brain surgeon. This time, you’ll be helping a patient with epilepsy.

Marie is a young woman who has dangerous seizures. She’s tried all kinds of treatments to stop these intense seizures from happening, but nothing has helped. That’s why she has chosen to undergo brain surgery. 

Will you be able to cure her epilepsy symptoms? It’s time to head to the operating room!

How to play Operate Now: Epilepsy Surgery?

There are two game modes in this surgery game. You start the game as a surgeon in training. Your experienced OR nurse, Lara, will help you by explaining each of the steps. She’ll tell you which surgical instruments you need, and what to use them for.

First, you’ll need to determine if it is safe to perform surgery on Marie. Use an EEG (electroencephalogram) to test for abnormal electrical signals in Marie’s brain. This way, you can find out which part of the brain is causing her seizures.

Marie’s seizures are caused by one specific and non-critical area of the brain. With focal resection surgery, you can carefully remove the part of the brain that is triggering her seizures. 

Head to the operating room and get your patient ready by shaving her hair and applying an antiseptic solution to her skin. 

During the surgery, you will have to expose part of Marie’s brain. Use a small plastic mat with lots of tiny electrodes to detect the precise patch of the brain causing the seizures. This is the part you will have to remove.

Once this is done, you will have to carefully close the dura mater, the skull, and the skin with small stitches, steel plates, and surgical staples.

Play the game in Expert Mode

You did it! Once you’ve completed the surgery, you can unlock the expert mode. Now, you can try performing the same surgery again, but without Lara’s help. Do you still remember exactly how to do the operation and save your patient?
