  • Apoplexy is a medical term, which can be used to mean 'bleeding' in a cerebrovascular accident. However, without further specification it is rather outdated, and is today rather used for specific conditions, such as pituitary apoplexy. It can be used non-medically to mean a state of extreme rage or excitement.

OmegaWiki Dictionary Ω
