Cardiac rhythm abnormalities in the context of epilepsy are a well-known phenomenon. However, they are under-recognized and often missed. The pathophysiology of these events is unclear. Bradycardia and asystole are preceded by seizure onset suggesting ictal propagation into the cortex impacting cardiac autonomic function, and the insula and amygdala being possible culprits. Sudden unexpected de...
OBJECTIVE New-onset acute symptomatic seizures can be the presenting feature of acute neurological diseases. The etiological spectrum of new-onset acute symptomatic seizures and outcome may be different in developing countries when compared to developed countries. AIM To study the clinical profile of new-onset acute symptomatic seizures as the first presenting event in patients with acute neu...
OBJECTIVE New devices are needed for monitoring seizures, especially those associated with sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP). They must be unobtrusive and automated, and provide false alarm rates (FARs) bearable in everyday life. This study quantifies the performance of new multimodal wrist-worn convulsive seizure detectors. METHODS Hand-annotated video-electroencephalographic seizu...
A 3-year-old female patient developed chorea possibly due to an interaction between phenytoin, phenobarbital and clobazam used for generalized tonic clonic seizures. Phenytoin withdrawal resulted in recovery within 24 hours. Post reaction computerized tomography (CT)-scan of brain was normal. Combined use of anti-seizure drugs and interactions between them may be responsible for the reaction. T...
Seizure episodes associated with generalized tonic clonic or partial seizure disorder is a life style debilitating disease. Several drugs have been developed, which are in use to control seizure episodes include carbamazepine, ethosuximide, felbamate, lamotrigine and phenytoin (Das et al., 2012; Bialer et al., 2013). While a long list of drug exists, phenytoin is preferred drug of choice as it:...
A 58-year-old man was admitted after a generalized tonic-clonic seizure. The neurological examination was normal, except for bilateral periorbital, enoral and superior thoracic petechiae, which had only occurred after the seizure. The blood pressure, CT scan of the brain and routine laboratory were unremarkable. Seizure-related petechial rash is a rare finding that might be helpful for the diag...
At age 15 months, this previously healthy girl presented with an unprovoked seizure with right-sided clonic movements and facial twitching for 8 minutes. Serial MRIs revealed evolution from diffusion-weighted changes suggestive of edema to left hippocampal hyperintensity on T2 images and subsequently atrophy suggestive of mesial temporal sclerosis (MTS)1 (figures 1 and 2). After seizure freedom...
Epileptic seizures can be evoked in chicks homozygous for the epileptic seizure gene (epi, epi) by elevating their body temperature using microwave diathermy. These seizures precede and differ in motor seizure pattern from a second clonic-tonic seizure produced by hyperthermia in both epileptic and carrier (heterozygote, Epi, epi) chicks. Hyperthermia did not evoke seizures in adult epileptic c...
A 19 year old male, with no past medical history, presented to the emergency department with a witnessed episode of generalized tonic-clonic seizure. The seizure lasted approximately 7 minutes. The episode was associated with tongue biting, loss of urinary sphincter control and a prolonged postictal state. On recovery, the patient denied any previous seizures or a family history of seizure. His...
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the most important direct epilepsy-related cause of death. Patients with refractory epilepsy are at especially high risk of SUDEP. SUDEP occurs predominantly at night and unwitnessed, and can best be regarded as a fatal tonic-clonic seizure. While its pathophysiology is incompletely understood, SUDEP is most probably triggered by a number of predis...
