 Understanding the semiology and underlying anatomy of each seizure is essential for epilepsy surgeons. According to the International League Against Epilepsy(ILAE)classification in 2017, seizure types are classified as focal, generalized, or unknown onset, all of which are further classified as motor or non-motor onset. Impairment of awareness is involved in consciousness systems(consisting of subcortical structures such as the thalamus and upper brain stem)and cortical structures(including the frontoparietal association cortices). Seizures with motor features are divided into elementary symptoms for which myoclonic, clonic, and tonic expressions reflect the somatotopy of the primary motor cortex; and integrated or gestural motor expression representing activation of the motor association cortex. A rostrocaudal gradient is demonstrated in hyperkinetic movements in frontal lobe epilepsy. Non-motor epileptic features should be understood together with auras, which correspond to focal aware seizures and hold crucial localizing semiologic values. The correlation between functional anatomy and seizure semiology is justified by invasive recordings such as stereotactic electroencephalography and subdural recordings, and also confirmed by seizure outcomes after resection of supposed epileptogenic zones. In addition to the conventional localization theory, it is necessary to consider the neural network theory for further recognition of the functionally anatomical basis in an incomprehensible demonstration of seizures.
