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 and subcortical T2 and T2* hypointensity associated with nonketotic hyperglycemia: a case report
BACKGROUND Nonketotic hyperglycemia often causes seizures. Recently, seizures associated with nonketotic hyperglycemia have been found to be associated with subcortical T2 hypointensity on magnetic resonance imaging, especially in the occipital lobes. However, the mechanism remains unclear, although iron accumulation is suggested. We present a case of occipital lobe seizures associated with non...
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...
