Abstract
Vascular pathologies, despite the low percentage of prevalence among other etiological factors of epilepsy development, often cause such an important problem today as pharmacoresistance. This phenomenon can lead not only to a decrease in the quality of life of patients, but even to a fatal outcome.In this regard, the main task of this article will be to disclose the etiopathogenesis of epileptic seizures in patients with arteriovenous malformations, aneurysms and cavernomas. It is important to understand that the key role is played by the formation of organic pathology of the brain, the elimination of which should be paramount for the effective relief of epileptic seizures. Studying the issues discussed in this article can help structure the drug and surgical treatment of these patients, and perhaps even develop new algorithms.
