Epilepsy in Other Brain Diseases

A Guide to Diagnosis and Management

Studies have demonstrated that a substantial proportion of patients with other brain diseases like stroke, traumatic brain injury, and dementia will develop epilepsy. This text provides a clear and concise guide to the epidemiology and clinical research on epilepsy as it occurs in the context of other brain diseases.

A substantial proportion of patients with other brain diseases like stroke, traumatic brain injury, and dementia will develop epilepsy. This book provides a clear and concise guide to the epidemiology and clinical research on epilepsy as it occurs in the context of other brain diseases.

A better and more detailed understanding of the diseases related to the brain following decades of advances in neuroimaging, pathology, and neurophysiology have led to new insights into mechanisms leading to epilepsy. Advances in research on epilepsy in one brain disease are known to lead to an improved understanding of epilepsy in others. Advances in neurological care have resulted in patients with stroke, tumors, or infections surviving longer, with ensuing demands for long-term treatment, including epilepsy.

A key message across the different chapters in the book is that epilepsy in other brain diseases should be managed just as ambitiously as any other epilepsy. Neurologists treating patients with brain disease will find this book accessible and practical. It will ensure a deeper understanding of acquired epilepsy among clinicians.
