abstract：BACKGROUND/AIM:Although most late-onset seizures (LS) appear within 2 years after stroke, some of them occur later and their characteristics are unknown. The aim of this study was to compare the characteristics of patients with very-late-onset seizures (VLS) to those with early-onset seizures (ES) and those with LS. P...
