The girl was diagnosed with epilepsy in 2016 when she was just 3 years old. After early treatment, the frequency of her epileptic seizures was controlled to once every 10 days.
However, the effectiveness of the medication diminished later, and by 2024 the girl was experiencing epileptic seizures five to six times a night.
In July 2024, she underwent a robot-assisted stereotactic electroencephalography electrode implantation at the hospital, helping to clearly identify the location of the epileptic focus. Following a surgery of partial thermal condensation damages on the lesion without affecting her brain function, the girl experienced no seizures for three months.
