Epilepsy due to prenatal or perinatal brain insults

Description

Epilepsy occurring in relation to a distinct structural or metabolic condition or disease that has been demonstrated to be associated with a substantially increased risk of developing epilepsy, with the insult occurring before birth [prenatal] or between 22 weeks of gestation and 7 days after birth. Onset of epilepsy may be in infancy, childhood, or adulthood.
