Epileptic drop attacks: More than just atonic seizures

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract “Drop attacks” are not officially defined by the International League Against Epilepsy. Seizures are characterized by a sudden loss of control over the trunk and posture, leading to falls and injuries, and resolving within a few seconds. Accurately diagnosing the type of seizure is usually difficult due to limitations in clinical documentation
