CLINICAL AND ETIOLOGICAL PROFILE OF SEIZURES IN ADULTS

Dr. K M Siddharth, Dr. Faraz Farishta

Abstract :

 Epileptic seizures were described in ancient cultures, including those of China, Egypt, and India. The seizures were attributed to the God of the Moon and many supernatural powers. In fact the world “Epilepsy” is derived from a Greek meaning “to be seized by forces from without”. Hippocrates wrote the first book on “Epilepsy” 2500 years ago. He rejected the ideas regarding the divine etiology and concluded the excessive phlegm causing abnormal ain consistency is the root cause.
