Epileptic seizures resulting from acute cerebral anoxia.
Five patients with acute anoxic episodes requiring resuscitation, with coma and development of epileptic manifestations are reported. Myoclonic types of seizures were predominantly seen in these cases. Rhythmical or burst-like generalized-synchronous spike discharges represented the most common EEG correlate of the epileptic activity. In one patient, a suppression-burst-like pattern was tempora...
متن کاملEpileptic seizures in cerebral arterial occlusive disease.
The occurrence of epileptic seizures was investigated in 141 patients with angiographically proven carotid or MCA occlusive disease. Epileptic seizures occurred some time during the clinical course of the disease in 17.3% of carotid patients and in 10.8% of MCA patients, being mainly represented by partial motor seizures. The pattern of occurrence of seizures in the natural history of cerebral ...
متن کامل[Transient cerebral changes in magnetic resonance after isolated epileptic seizures].
Transient cerebral alterations in epilepsy patients were first highlighted in 1980 by Rumack et al. Most of those described in the literature refer to patients with partial or generalized status epilepticus, with scant reports in patients with isolated epileptic seizures. In both computed tomography and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, these lesions may imitate other pathological entities; ther...
متن کاملEpileptic seizures from abnormal networks: why some seizures defy predictability.
Seizure prediction has proven to be difficult in clinically realistic environments. Is it possible that fluctuations in cortical firing could influence the onset of seizures in an ictal zone? To test this, we have now used neural network simulations in a computational model of cortex having a total of 65,536 neurons with intercellular wiring patterned after histological data. A spatially distri...
متن کاملPostictal symptoms help distinguish patients with epileptic seizures from those with non-epileptic seizures
The aim of the study was to assess whether post-ictal symptoms can help distinguish patients who have epileptic seizures from those with non-epileptic seizures (NES). We reviewed the spontaneous responses to the question 'What symptoms do you have after a seizure?' in 16 patients with epileptic seizures (predominantly focal with secondary generalization or generalized tonic-clonic) and 23 NES p...
