  • Title: [Complex partial status epilepticus in a patient with a frontal cavernous angiomas].
    Author: Eguchi T, Nikaido Y, Uranishi R, Kim Y, Bessho H, Fujimoto T.

    Abstract:
    We described a 34-year-old woman with a right frontal cavernous angioma who presented with complex partial status epilepticus (CPSE). In the first CPSE, complex partial seizure with complete unresponsiveness and tonic motor manifestation on her left arm occurred repeatedly at short intervals. Her consciousness was mildly disturbed between the seizures. An hour after the intra-venous administration of diazepam, her consciousness returned to normal. In the second CPSE, no motor manifestation was found, but complete unresponsiveness of short duration accompanied with stare and moderately impaired consciousness continued to occur. We emphasize the importance of not missing this rare non-convulsive epileptic status, especially when it does not present motor manifestations.
