Coming soonEpilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder of the central nervous system characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate recurrent, unprovoked epileptic seizures.
It can affect individuals across all age groups and arises from diverse structural, genetic, infectious, metabolic, immune, or unknown etiologies.
Pathophysiologically, the condition is driven by transient, excessive, and hypersynchronous electrical discharges among cortical neuronal networks, resulting in disrupted brain function.
Clinically, these episodes manifest as a wide spectrum of signs and symptoms depending on the affected cerebral region, ranging from brief staring spells and sensory alterations to focal motor twitches or generalized convulsive activity with impaired awareness.
