A 34-year-old woman developed a sustained right homonymous hemianopia and episodic visual hallucinations 8 days after liver transplant surgery. Neuro-ophthalmologic examination and perimetry confirmed a right homonymous hemianopia with macular sparing. The patient's vital signs and laboratory
Focal seizures related to non-ketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) are rare in clinical practice. Plasma glucose levels are usually above 16.6 mmol/L and with normal or slightly elevated serum osmolality. The occurrence of focal seizures may be augmented by the absence of ketoacidosis. Electroencephalogram
A 69-year-old female with an old infarct of the left parietotemporal lobe was admitted for the evaluation of suspected painful seizures accompanying ictal paresis. The painful seizure and ictal paresis involved her right extremities without convulsions, although intermittent tremulous movements were
BACKGROUND
Nonketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) is known to cause focal motor or secondarily generalized seizures. Occipital seizures in NKH are seldom reported, especially with visual hallucinations and persistent homonymous hemianopia (HH) with characteristic radiological and electroencephalographic
BACKGROUND
Nonketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) is a clinical syndrome consisting of severe hyperglycemia, hyperosmolarity, and intracellular dehydration without ketoacidosis. Diverse neurologic symptoms have been described in patients with NKH, including hemichorea, seizure, hemianopsia, and coma, but
Isolated hemimegalencephaly (iHME) is a rare form of congenital malformation of cortical development characterized by enlargement of all or part of one cerebral hemisphere. It typically presents with intractable seizures, developmental delay, contralateral hemiparesis, and hemianopia. We report a
Hemimegalencephaly (HME) is a developmental brain lesion consisting of a unilateral enlarged, dysplastic, and often highly epileptogenic cerebral hemisphere. Most patients exhibit early onset intractable seizures, status epilepticus, hemiplegia, hemianopsia, and developmental delay. Major surgical
The risk-benefit ratio of this functionally complete but anatomically subtotal hemispherectomy is strongly in favor of its more widespread and early use for the small group of unfortunate seizure patients who have maximal or near maximal hemiplegia and a complete or high-grade hemianopsia, and whose
Visual field defects are rarely associated with epilepsy. We report two patients with a long history of cryptogenetic occipital epilepsy. Both patients suffer complex partial crises accompanied by concentric reduction of the visual field followed, in the first one, by a prolonged left homonymous
Spectrum of the neurological deficits in non-ketotic hyperglycemia and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) ranges widely among patients and can have any presentation from focal seizures, epilepsia partialis continua, chorea-hemiballismus syndrome, hemiparesis, hemianopia to mental obtundation and
