Autonomic symptoms and signs rarely occur as isolated phenomena without impaired consciousness. Ictal nausea with vomiting is a rare clinical manifestation of seizures. Ictal vomiting is considered a localizing sign in patients with partial seizures of temporal origin. We encountered two patients
A 2-month-old infant was admitted to hospital because of recurrent vomiting for 1 week, progressive apathy, and focal seizures. The cranial MRI showed a noticeable result.
The authors present 3 cases of ictal vomiting with 2 seizures recorded on the EEG. The critical vomiting is always sudden, projectile, and lasts a short period. The interictal and ictal EEG recording showed a focus or a seizure involving the frontal temporal regions. The seizures were kept under
Partial seizure is a rare cause of nausea and vomiting. We report an adult patient with abdominal discomfort lasting 15 years accompanied by nausea and vomiting at least twice a week. On admission, physical examination and detailed laboratory tests were normal. Abdominal ultrasound examination,
In a previous report of 900 patients with epileptic seizures, 24 children had ictal vomiting. Twelve had a previously unrecognised syndrome of early onset benign childhood occipital seizures (EBOS) and three had symptomatic epilepsy. The other nine children with extraoccipital EEG foci or normal EEG
We report 3 cases presenting ictal vomiting during partial seizures of temporal lobe origin. Two patients had complex partial seizures accompanying vomiting characteristics. Ictal vomiting occurred early in the course of the seizure when rhythmic discharges involved predominantly the left
OBJECTIVE
Ictal vomiting represents a rare clinical manifestation during seizures originating from the temporal lobes of the nondominant hemisphere. The precise anatomic structures responsible for generation of ictal vomiting remain to be clarified. Ictal single photon emission computed tomography
Objective: To investigate the clinical features, treatment methods, and outcomes of fulminant myocarditis (FM) in children. Methods: The clinical data of 23 children with FM hospitalized in the First Affiliated Hospital of USTC, Division of Life Sciences and Medicine, University of
An epileptic syndrome of benign nocturnal childhood occipital epilepsy with excellent prognosis is described. The syndrome is characterized by a clinical ictal triad of nocturnal seizures, tonic deviation of the eyes, and vomiting. There may be marching to involve the head and limbs, ending with a
Ictal vomiting is considered a localizing sign indicating nondominant lateralization in patients with partial seizures of temporal lobe origin. We report a case of ictal vomiting associated with left temporal seizure activity in a left hemisphere language-dominant patient with a left mesial temporal
In some inherited metabolic diseases, in particular in urea cycle disorders, which are usually diagnosed in neonatal period or in childhood, vomiting is often the first symptom. We report a case of late revelation of urea cycle disorder in a 13 years old female patient hospitalized for convulsions

The effects of ICV injections were investigated in unanesthetized cats of ethanol alone and in combination with the dihydropyridine calcium antagonist, nitrendipine, on emesis and the convulsions produced by nicotine, which was similarly injected by the ICV route. In the first series of experiments,
In July 1996 a 43-year-old illiterate Hispanic woman presented with uncontrollable vomiting, palpitations and confusion. In 1994, despite several hospitalisations in other medical centres where a cerebral CT-scan, oesogastroduodenoscopy, colonoscopy and abdominal ultrasound were performed, no
