Epilepsy is a really wide range of disorders with many causes that simply manifest in similar ways.

So it is possible this is a cause of a single type of epilepsy, but not all.

My own epilepsy was the result of spinal damage as a teen that left me temporarily, partially paralyzed. I regained movement but have frequent seizures from the damage.

Similarly a friend had a growth on his brain. Surgery removed it but he was epileptic for about a year after.
