Diagnostic Dynamics of Post-Traumatic Epilepsy in the Context of Comorbid Medical Conditions

Abstract

Posttraumatic epilepsy is a form of epilepsy in which the formation of an epileptogenic and epileptic focus has a reliable causal relationship with previously suffered traumatic brain injury and associated CVD, which may clinically manifest as recurrent unprovoked epileptic seizures. This suggests that it is reasonable to identify patients with this form of the disease as a separate study group [1,3,5].
