In the field of neurology, seizure types are categories of seizures defined by seizure behavior, symptoms, and diagnostic tests. The International League Against Epilepsy (ILAE) 2017 classification of seizures is the internationally recognized standard for identifying seizure types.[1] The ILAE 2017 classification of seizures is a revision of the prior ILAE 1981 classification of seizures.[2] Distinguishing between seizure types is important since different types of seizures may have different causes, outcomes, and treatments.
