UK Boy Receives World's First Epilepsy Device Implanted In Skull Cougar
- Location: Cougar, Washington, United States
In a world-first trial, a 12-year-old boy named Oran Knowlson from Somerset received a new epilepsy device implanted in his skull. The device, a neurostimulator, sends electrical signals to his brain, significantly reducing his daily seizures by 80%. Oran suffers from Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, a severe form of epilepsy that began at age three.
His mother, Justine, told the BBC that Oran has shown dramatic improvement and described him as "happier" and finally having "a much better quality of life."
Previously, Oran's epilepsy dominated his life. Justine explained last year, "It has robbed him of all of his childhood." The seizures, ranging from dozens to hundreds daily, involved violent shaking, falling, and even loss of consciousness requiring emergency resuscitation.
