Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures, affecting millions of people worldwide. Despite significant advancements in understanding and treatment, navigating the complexities of epilepsy diagnosis and management remains challenging for healthcare providers and patients alike. From the intricacies of accurate diagnosis to the nuances of personalized treatment plans, addressing epilepsy requires a comprehensive approach. Epilepsy is a diverse spectrum of disorders, encompassing various seizure types, etiologies and clinical presentations. Seizures occur due to abnormal electrical activity in the brain, leading to transient disruptions in normal brain function. These manifestations can range from subtle sensory experiences to convulsions and loss of consciousness. Accurate diagnosis is fundamental for effective management. The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) provides a classification system based on seizure type, epileptic syndrome and underlying cause, aiding clinicians in categorizing and treating epilepsy patients effectively.
