The incidence of cerebral granulomas was 7% in this prospective study of 56 consecutive patients with onset of seizures after the age of 20 years.

6. Focal epilepsy in India with special reference to lesions showing ring or disc-like enhancement on contrast computed tomography.
In 150 consecutive cases of simple partial epilepsy significant CT abnormalities were found in 68%. The commonest lesion noted was a hypodense lesion on unenhanced scan, with a ring or disc-like enhancement on contrast scan, and surrounding hypodensity. This lesion was seen in 39 cases and was more common in patients below the age of 15 years and in those wi
