Coexistence of epileptic nocturnal wanderings and an arachnoid cyst.
Episodic nocturnal wanderings (ENWs) have rarely been associated with gross abnormalities of brain structures. We describe the case of a patient with ENWs in coexistence with an arachnoid cyst (AC). The patient was a 15-year-old boy who presented with nocturnal attacks characterized by complex motor behaviors. An MRI revealed a left temporal cyst and a SPECT Tc99 scan showed left temporal hypop...
متن کاملIntroduction Paroxysmal Motor Behaviors Occurring during Sleep Are Classified Either as Sleep-related Epilep- Tic Seizures
PAROXYSMAL MOTOR BEHAVIORS OCCURRING DURING SLEEP ARE CLASSIFIED EITHER AS SLEEP-RELATED EPILEPTIC SEIZURES OR AS PARASOMNIAS. In 1977 Pedley and Guilleminault1 defined an atypical form of epilepsy, called episodic nocturnal wanderings, characterized by paroxysmal ambulation and bizarre behavioral manifestations during sleep. Even in the absence of recorded nocturnal seizures, the presence of i...
متن کاملMultimodal Biomedical Signal Processing End Abstracts Integrating Video and Accelerometer Signals for Nocturnal Epileptic Seizure Detection
Epileptic seizure detection is traditionally done using video/electroencephalogram (EEG) monitoring, which is not applicable in a home situation. In recent years, attempts have been made to detect the seizures using other modalities. In this research we investigate if a combined usage of accelerometers attached to the limbs and video data would increase the performance compared to a single moda...
متن کاملAutomatic Video Detection of Nocturnal Epileptic Movement based on Motion Tracks
Epileptic seizure detection in a home situation is often not feasible due to the complicated attachment of the EEG-electrodes on the scalp. We propose to detect nocturnal seizures with a motor component in patients by means of a single video camera. To this end we use a combination of optical flow and mean shift clustering to register moving body parts. After extraction of seven features, relat...
متن کاملWanderings with Lady M.: a happy threesome.
I met Horst at the University of Münster, Germany, in July 1972. While I was at the university, one of my goals was to find a husband. I wanted my husband to be Catholic, so I decided to join a bible study group, where I thought I would find many suitable “candidates.” Unfortunately though, I was wrong. There were only two Catholics. One of them was definitely not an option, and then there was ...
