Factors that modify the risk of intraoperative seizures triggered by electrical stimulation during supratentorial functional mapping

•Loading with AED before mapping decreases the risk of intraoperative seizures.•Penfield stimulation and diffuse pathology independently increase this risk.•Preoperative seizures have no impact, likely due to the protective effect of AED. Intraoperative mapping via electrical stimulation is the gold...
