The results of multimodality rehabilitation treatment of 85 patients with traumatic epilepsy are presented. Complete social compensation or less pronounced compensation was achieved in 61 patients with regressive and slowly progressive courses of the disease. Complete disadaptation occurred in 12 patients with the progressive type of the disease. The multimodality treatment with the use of anticonvulsants should include drugs of metabolic action (nootropic agents), neuroleptics and tranquilizers.
