What's are the three main surgeries for petit mal.

Not surgery candidat: Petit mal epilepsy is not usually treated by surgery, rather by anti seizure medications. You may be confusing Petit Mal with small seizures that may represent partial seizures. Partial seizures may be addressed with surgery. You should clarify this with a neurologist.
