Abstract (2. Language): 
Epilepsy is one of the common neurological disorders that varies greatly in its clinical features, electroencephalographic (EEG) findings and prognosis. Epidemiological studies enlighten us about these features, but there is still a lack of "regional profiles of epilepsy" in Turkey. We reviewed the differential diagnosis, seizure types, electroencephalographic findings and prognosis in 143 patients that were admitted to İnönü University Medical School. Xeuro/ogy Department between April 1993- April 1994. for episodic loss of consciousness. /Journal of Turgut Özal Medical Center 2(1): 14-16.1995/
Abstract (Original Language): 
Epilepsi en sık karşılaşılan nörolojik hastalıklardan biridir. Epidemiyolojik çalışmalar, hastadan hastaya çok değişebilen klinik belirtiler, elektroensefalograjik (EEG) bulgular ve prognoz hakkında bilgilenmemize yardımcı olur. Ancak ne yazık ki. Türkiye'de bu konuda yeterli çalışma yoktur. Bu çalışmada İnönü Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi. Nöroloji Anabilim Dalı'na bilinç kaybı yakınması ile başvuran 143 hastanın ayırıcı tanıları ile epilepsi tanısı konan hastaların nöbet tipleri, elektroensefalogra/i bulguları ve izlem sonuçları retrospektif olarak gözden geçirilmiştir. /Turgut Özal Tıp Merkezi Dergisi 2(1): 14-16.1995/
