Late-onset focal epileptic seizures occurred in 8 patients with ischemic cerebro-vascular disease (ICVD) and were associated with TIAs in 6 of them. History, physical, laboratory, ancillary examinations and follow-up revealed no other disease which might be responsible for the seizures. Moreover, time of onset and appropriate signs of ICVD suggested that transient cerebral ischemia was the most likely cause of seizures.
May focal epileptic seizures be considered a marker of TIAs?

Abstract
Late-onset focal epileptic seizures occurred in 8 patients with ischemic cerebro-vascular disease (ICVD) and were associated with TIAs in 6 of them. History, physical, laboratory, ancillary examinations and follow-up revealed no other disease which might be responsible for the seizures. Moreover, time of onset and appropriate signs of ICVD suggested that transient cerebral ischemia was the most likely cause of seizures.
