✦ Synopsis

Epileptic seizures due to thrombotic cerebral infarction were studied in 118 patients. The occurrence of seizures had a bimodal distribution with one peak period within 2 weeks and another peak period from 6 to 12 months after stroke. Four patients had seizures preceding stroke, while 23 patients without a history of previous stroke had "silent infarct" on the CT scan. Fifteen patients (13%) had status epilepticus. Simple partial seizures occurred in 56% of patients, complex partial seizures in 24% and generalized tonic-clonic seizures in 4%. Epilepsy developed in 35% of patients with early seizures and in 90% of patients with late seizures.

The network is described in terms of differential delay equations in which strong depolarization of any unit in the ensemble results in spike inactivation and the attenuation of that cell's output.
