Abstract (English): Epilepsy is a public health concern with higher incidence rates reported in developing countries. Age plays a significant role in both the incidence and prevalence of the disease, which is most frequently observed in childhood and among older adults. The population of elderly individuals living with epilepsy has increased over recent decades, underscoring the need for further research into its epidemiology, etiology, comorbidities, pharmacological and surgical treatments, and status epilepticus. Socioeconomic, occupational, cultural, and regional differences must be taken into account when approaching this population. Importantly, the most common etiologies of epilepsy in older adults are cerebrovascular disease and traumatic brain injury, highlighting the importance of prevention efforts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish): La epilepsia es un problema de salud pública, con una mayor incidencia en los países en desarrollo. La edad influye en la incidencia/prevalencia de la enfermedad, siendo más frecuente en la infancia y en los ancianos. La población de adultos mayores con epilepsia ha crecido en las últimas décadas y debemos insistir más investigaciones sobre epidemiología, etiología, comorbilidades, tratamiento farmacológico, quirúrgico y el estado epiléptico (SE). Se debe considerar las diferencias económicas, laborales, sociales y culturales de esta población, además de tomar en cuenta que la etiología más frecuente de la epilepsia en los adultos mayores es la enfermedad vascular cerebral y el traumatismo craneal por lo que se debe promoverse la prevención.
