Epilepsy after missile wounds of the head.

Among the 165 of these patients who have been followed up for over a year, the incidence of epilepsy has been 11·4%, 18·75%, and 33·3% in a follow-up period ranging between one to two years, two to three years, and three to five years ...

Traumatic epilepsy after closed head injuries.

MRI was performed in a prospective study within ...
