Popis: The aim of this report is to review the indication and the practical use of the antiepileptic drugs in patients with cerebral lesions. The use of antiepileptic drugs to treat seizure or status epilepticus in an emergency is well catalogued and reported in this paper. Practical use of antiepileptic drugs, after a first seizure or to prevent a seizure, in patients with a cerebral lesion, is controversial. The question of antiepileptic drugs in seizures and in prophylaxis is discussed in different types of cerebral lesions: head injury, stroke, cerebral arteriovenous malformation and cerebral tumour.
