cortical epilepsy
Cortical epilepsy is a type of epilepsy characterized by recurring seizures that originate in the cerebral cortex, the outer layer of the brain responsible for motor function, sensory processing, and cognitive functions. The symptoms and severity of cortical epilepsy can vary widely, depending on the specific area of the cortex where the abnormal electrical activity occurs. This type of epilepsy can be caused by a variety of factors including brain injury, infections, tumors, stroke, or genetic predisposition.
