AB  - A  seizure  is  an  episode  of  abnormal  neurologic  function  caused  by  inappropriate  electrical  discharge  of  brain  neurons.  Primary  seizures  are  those  without  a  clear  cause.  Secondary  seizures  result  from  another  identifiable  neurologic  condition,  such  as  a  mass  or  stroke  (Table  145-1).
