Scar Epilepsy as a Complication of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in a Patient With Adult Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Case Report

Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is the most common hereditary disorder of kidneys. In adults, PKD1 gene mutation almost always signifies its subtype, autosomal dominant polycystic (ADPKD), or adult disease. ADPKD a multisystemic giving rise to renal and extra-renal manifestations. The shutdown feared complication while development intracranial aneurysms considered lethal feature. This can be attributed increased risk rupture associated with leading condition called subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). While being notorious for subtle situations SAH often leads to, association onset seizures matter high clinical significance. We present patient (ADPKD) that has led epilepsy. Five years after diagnosis ADPKD, he developed an aneurysm in right internal carotid artery, which was treated conservatively. After four months, presented symptoms SAH, confirmed by computed tomography angiography. Clipping unable performed, conservatively, this time as well. Recently, generalized tonic-clonic seizures, controlled single anti-epileptics. He stabilized dual intravenous antiepileptics but on further workup, found have recurrence berry referred neurosurgeon clipping procedure performed. operation successful, still epileptic discharged long-term course double
