CLINICAL AND PATHOGENETIC ASPECTS OF HYPOTHALAMO-PIPOPHYSICAL SYNDROME IN PATIENTS WITH EPILEPSY

Abstract

The fundamental congestion of understanding the brain in epileptic seizures is presented at
the end of the 19th century, by the English neurologist Jackson, as a short, spontaneous, electrochemical "circuit" of the brain, depending on brain activity and location (1, 3, 10). According to
statistics from the WHO organization, 50 million people suffer from epilepsy, and according to
global estimates, up to 50 cases of the disease are registered annually per 100 thousand people.
Epilepsy cannot be "infected", but many underlying diseases are the pathogenetic mechanism for
the development of epilepsy. In addition, the complexity of the disease is largely in an unknown
etiopathogenetic factor, marked by significant clinical polymorphism and dynamism, which in turn
complicates the diagnosis and prognosis of the disease
