The majority of epilepsies (60%) are partial-onset or focal, such that a single, isolated part of the body is affected.
Seizures arising from the temporal lobe of the brain are the most common type of partial-onset epilepsy and have been associated with childhood febrile seizures.
Simple temporal lobe seizures, which do not result in a loss of consciousness, typically present as a sensation such as:
-- Deja' vu (feeling of familiarity) -- Jamais vu (feeling of unfamiliarity)
