Epilepsy is a common neurological condition, with post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) accounting for up to 20% of symptomatic cases.

Epilepsy is a highly prevalent neurological condition, impacting approximately seventy million individuals worldwide, with post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) constituting up to 20% of symptomatic cases. Despite its prevalence, there remains a significant lack of comprehensive information available to clinicians regarding PTE. This book aims to bridge this knowledge gap by providing a comprehensive guide to the neurobiology, long-term consequences, and rehabilitation needs of patients with PTE.

In addition to covering the core aspects of PTE, the book delves into emerging topics such as concussive convulsions in sports, emphasizing the importance of understanding these phenomena in the clinical setting. A dedicated chapter specifically addressing PTE in children ensures that readers have access to the latest knowledge and treatment strategies for this high-risk subpopulation.

Recognizing the challenges faced in medium and low-income countries where access to appropriate treatment and diagnostic equipment is often limited, the book provides in-depth coverage of managing PTE in these contexts. It explores the strategies and approaches employed to address the unique challenges posed by resource constraints, ensuring that clinicians can provide effective care to patients regardless of their geographical location.

Written by esteemed international authorities in the fields of epilepsy and traumatic brain injury, this book offers a timely and comprehensive overview of PTE. It emphasizes epidemiology, neurobiology, clinical problems, and management issues, providing a valuable resource for healthcare professionals, researchers, and students alike. By offering a comprehensive perspective on PTE, this book aims to enhance the understanding and care of individuals affected by this condition, ultimately improving their quality of life.
