    Jacksonian epilepsy, also known as Jacksonian seizure, is a form of epilepsy that originates in one area of the brain, typically the cerebral cortex. These seizures are characterized by simple, partial symptoms that affect only one part of the body, often a hand, arm, or leg, and can spread progressively to other body parts on the same side, a process known as the Jacksonian march. The person experiencing the seizure usually remains conscious throughout the event.
