[Partial epilepsy]
This refers to epilepsy in which the initial symptoms of the seizure and the electroencephalogram (EEG) findings indicate focal brain damage (in this case, the focal brain damage is the source of abnormal excitement that causes the seizure, and such a focal brain damage site is called the focus of epilepsy).
