The symptomatic localization-related epilepsies: problems with subclassification.

Classification of different types of epilepsy based on region of seizure origin is particularly appropriate in patients being considered for epilepsy surgery. While some progress has been made, many of the specific seizure types are based on few, often inadequately documented, cases. Further progres...

description Classification of different types of epilepsy based on region of seizure origin is particularly appropriate in patients being considered for epilepsy surgery. While some progress has been made, many of the specific seizure types are based on few, often inadequately documented, cases. Further progress requires that the region of origin be established and clinical characteristics documented. Two examples of carefully studied patients are described.
