The stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) methodology and technique was developed almost 60 years ago in Europe and it has proven its efficacy and safety over the last 55 years. The main advantage of the SEEG method is the possibility to study the epileptogenic neuronal network in its dynamic and tri-dimensional aspect, with an optimal time and space correlation with the clinical semiology. In this manuscript, the technical and methodological aspects of the SEEG will be discussed focusing on the planning of SEEG implantations, technical nuances, conceptualization of the epileptogenic zone, and the different methods of SEEG-guided surgical resections and ablations.
