     poplexye, LL. poplexia, apoplexia, fr. Gr. 'apoplhxi`a, fr.

     Note: The term is now usually limited to cerebral apoplexy,
           or loss of consciousness due to effusion of blood or
           other lesion within the substance of the brain; but it
           is sometimes extended to denote an effusion of blood
           into the substance of any organ; as, apoplexy of the
           lung.
