	Epilepsy: Encyclopedia of Neurological Disorders
		The words "epilepsy" and "epileptic" are of Greek origin and have the same root as the verb "epilambanein," which means "to seize" or "to attack." Therefore, epilepsy means seizure, while epileptic means seized.
		A major concern in the course of an evaluation of epilepsy is to identify the presence of life-threatening causes such as brain tumors, infections, and cerebrovascular disease.
		Epilepsy surgery is an option in the attempt to either cure or significantly reduce the severity of medically resistant cases.
