Reversible homonymous hemianopia secondary to occipital lobe seizures
Occipital lobe infarcts, hemorrhages, or metastatic tumors can present with complex visual hallucinations, sensory or proprioceptive abnormalities, speech dysfunction, visual loss, and homonymous hemianopia (HH). Treatment of occipital lobe seizures is by single or multiple antiepileptic drugs. We present a case of idiopathic occipital lobe epilepsy where the seizures were controlled by antiepi...
متن کاملOccipital lobe seizures related to marked elevation of hemoglobin A1C: Report of two cases
Occipital lobe seizures caused by nonketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) have been reported in only a few cases and are not fully characterized. We report two cases of NKH-related occipital lobe seizures with high hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C), epileptiform electroencephalograph (EEG) and MRI abnormalities. Both patients had moderate hyperglycemia (310-372 mg/dl) and mildly elevated serum osmolarity (295-304 ...

The disorder is characterized by hyperglycaemia, no ketoacidosis, full consciousness (or minimal depression of sensorium) and focal seizures. We report 21 patients, who presented with seizures and nonketotic hyperglycaemia (NKH). This is a large case series. The aim of this report is to study clinic...
متن کاملReflex occipital lobe epilepsy
Photosensitivity is a typical feature of photosensitive epilepsy which is usually considered a form of idiopathic generalized epilepsy. Partial seizures featuring visual symptoms are rarely reported in photosensitive epilepsy. In this study, we describe 13 neurologically normal patients in whom daytime seizures were always induced by television and began with elementary visual hallucinations, f...
متن کاملMigraine with aura complicated by “migraine triggered seizures” and “occipital lobe infarction”: A case report
Migraine with aura is one of the major subtypes of migraine, and can be associated with ischaemic brain infarction. Use of oral contraceptive pills (OCPs) increases the risk of infarction in this type of migraine. Seizures and migraine also have a complex relationship, one element of which is migrainetriggered seizures. We report a case of bilateral occipital lobe infarction and migraine-trigge...
