seizure inhibitory motor seizure true Inhibitory motor seizures are ictal motor epileptic events of central paresis usually unilateral mono- or hemiparesis while consciousness is intact. They are reported under a number of different names, which may be confusing. Inhibitory motor seizures are contralateral to the epileptogenic region, and they are usually associated with other subjective or objective manifestations (predominantly sensory or motor clonic), which mainly precede but may also occur concurrently with the paresis.
