摘要
Electroencephalography plays an important role in the diagnosis and subsequent management of patients with epilepsy. We report the electroencephalographic findings in patients with epilepsy or history suggestive of epilepsy who were referred to the electroencephalographic unit of the major Psychiatric Hospital in Abha in the southwestern province of Saudi Arabia. Abnormal electroencephalographic finding was present in 50% of the referrals, Grand mal was by far the commonest type of epilepsy in our patients, The significance of our findings and the variation from other reported studies are discussed.
