Apoplexy \Ap"o*plex`y\ ([a^]p"[-o]*pl[e^]ks`[y^]), n. [OE.
   poplexye, LL. poplexia, apoplexia, fr. Gr. 'apoplhxi`a, fr.
   'apoplh`ssein to cripple by a stroke; 'apo` from + plh`ssein
   to strike: cf. F. apoplexie. See {Plague}.] (Med.)
   Sudden diminution or loss of consciousness, sensation, and
   voluntary motion, usually caused by pressure on the brain.

   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.
