Complex Partial Seizures
Jones K. Complex partial seizures. Aviat Space Environ Med 2007; 78:999–1000.
Complex partial seizures arise from a single focus in the brain and cause an impaired level of consciousness. Although these seizures can occur at any age, they are more common in adults. The true incidence of complex partial seizures is difficult to determine. In this article, a case of complex partial seizure disorder is reported in an airline transport pilot, along with a discussion of the seizure disorder and its aeromedical implications.
