Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Neurosurgery
  • Pathology

Context:

  • Seizures are a common neurological symptom.
  • Brain tumors are a significant cause of acquired epilepsy.
  • Understanding the characteristics of these tumors is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.

Purpose:

  • To investigate the clinical and pathological features of brain tumors presenting with seizures.
  • To identify common tumor types and their locations in patients with seizure disorders.

Summary:

  • A retrospective study of 50 patients with seizure-associated brain tumors was conducted.
  • The most frequent seizure types were tonic-clonic and simple partial.
  • Common tumor locations included parietal and frontal lobes, with meningioma and astrocytoma being the predominant histologies.
