Purpose of ReviewThe article gives an overview of the current knowledge in the management of tumor related epilepsy, including systematic reviews and consensus statements as well as recent insight into a potentially more individualized treatment approach.Recent FindingsTumor molecular markers as IDH1 mutation and MGMT methylation status may provide future treatment targets. Seizure control should be included as a metric in assessing efficacy of tumor treatment.SummaryProphylactic treatment is recommended in all brain tumor patients after the first seizure. Epilepsy has a profound effect on the quality of life in this patient group. The clinician should tailor the choice of seizure prophylactic treatment to the individual patient, with the goal of limiting adverse effects, avoiding interactions and obtaining a high degree of seizure freedom. Status epilepticus is associated with inferior survival and must be treated promptly. A multidisciplinary team should treat patients with brain tumors and epilepsy.
