Abstract
Results: A risk factor of post–traumatic seizures is the presence of evacuated mass lesion on CT image (p<0.05) in this study. Antiepileptic drugs (AED) are used in 363 patients (27%). AEDs were used in 128 patients (96%) of patients with seizures, and were used in 236 patients (19.5%) of patients without seizures. No relationship was observed between the outcome of patients and the pres­ence of post–traumatic seizures.
