OBJECTIVES AND IMPORTANCE: It is important to evaluate the seizure manifestation of epilepsy before surgical planning. A patient with partial epilepsy manifesting hypersalivation who underwent resection of the epileptogenic foci with satisfactory postoperative seizure control is reported.
METHODS
A
CONCLUSIONS
Although sudden unexpected death in epilepsy is encountered less frequently in children versus adults, it is still an important direct epilepsy-related cause of death in this population. Just as in adults, the pathophysiology of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy in children is believed
Three unrelated Puerto Rican boys, ranging in age from 3 to 4 years, had marked, central, non-progressive hypotonia, chronic constipation, severe psychomotor retardation, seizures or abnormal electroencephalograph or both, abnormal dermatoglyphics, delayed bone age, dysharmonic skeletal maturation,
Clozapine is approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for treatment-resistant schizophrenia and mitigation of suicidality in patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder. Clozapine requires monitoring of adverse events, such as hypotension, myocarditis, cardiomyopathy, seizures,
Purpose: Self-limited epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes, formerly called benign epilepsy with centrotemporal spikes, or rolandic epilepsy, is an age-related and well-defined epileptic syndrome. Since seizures associated with rolandic
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
A 23-year-old man presented to the clinic with a oneweek history of left upper and lower extremity numbness, starting in his left hand and progressing to his left foot. He then experienced intermittent difficulty walking and left-sided drooling. The patient also reported having a left arm abscess
The FVB mouse is used extensively in transgenic research because of its defined inbred background, superior reproductive performance, and prominent pronuclei, which facilitate microinjection of genomic material. Seizures associated with a known mutation and seizure-susceptible inbred strains are
Chronic cerebellar stimulation (CCS) applied to the superio-medial cortex reduces generalized cerebral spasticity, athetoid movements, and seizures. Eighteen clinics have reported on 600 cerebral palsy (CP) patients who comprise 90% of those treated with CCS. CP patients have varying degrees of
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effect of two different doses of atracurium on the modification of tonic-clonic convulsions in multiple-monitored electroconvulsive therapy (MMECT). To compare recovery time and adverse reactions of these doses.
METHODS
Clinical study. Anesthesiologist was blinded in the
OBJECTIVE
We sought to determine whether hypersalivation helps lateralize seizure onset during complex partial seizures of temporal lobe origin. Several clinical signs, which help lateralize seizure onset, have been reported in temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE). Increased salivation only occasionally has
After the early attempts of intra-operative electrocorticography and insulectomy in the 1950s, the notion of insular lobe seizures was largely forgotten for decades. It is only since the late 1990s that the recent technique of stereo-electroencephalography (SEEG) enabled preoperative diagnosis of
A 43-year-old man presented to the Prince of Wales Hospital, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, after experiencing his first tonic-clonic seizure. For the previous 2 years he had undergone gastroenterological investigation of episodes of gagging associated with hypersalivation and lachrymation,
We report a 9-year-old boy with seizures induced by defecation. The episodes occurred 1-2 min after passing a bowel action and consisted of initial staring, gagging, and drooling followed by a secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizure. The interictal EEGs were normal, but an ictal EEG with
