Sturge-weber syndrome, Rasmussen s encephalitis, Hemimegalencephaly, Vascular malformations and Large congenital porencephalic cysts as some examples of pathologies with diffuse hemispheric disturbances properties in the pediatric patients group, may be concomitant with some frequent motor seizures which can be generalized or unilateral in their nature. In this study we will have a brief review on some of the pathologies with diffuse hemispheric disturbances properties and their concomitance with some specific seizure types and will point to some important clinical notes about them.
