Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Partial seizures (also known as focal seizures) involve epileptic discharges that are localized to a specific area of the brain. They do not spread throughout the brain like generalized seizures. However, there can still be epileptic spiking in the EEG during partial seizures. Auras are also common in partial seizures, and the seizures can be either simple or complex depending on whether there is altered consciousness or other accompanying symptoms. There is typically an epileptic focus in the brain where the seizures originate.
