Drug resistant epilepsy with mesial temporal sclerosis as possible late neurological complication in two AML survivors after stem cell transplantation

• Mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS) is a potential late complication of hematological malignancies. • Seizures are usually drug resistant with MTS yet seizure freedom may be achieved by surgery. • Early evaluation for epilepsy surgery is warranted for drug resistant seizures due to AML.
