Episodic nocturnal wanderings (ENWs) have rarely been associated with gross abnormalities of brain structures. We describe the case of a patient with ENWs in coexistence with an arachnoid cyst (AC). The patient was a 15-year-old boy who presented with nocturnal attacks characterized by complex motor behaviors. An MRI revealed a left temporal cyst and a SPECT Tc99 scan showed left temporal hypop...
متن کاملLate postoperative nocturnal episodic hypoxaemia and associated sleep pattern.
Ten patients undergoing major abdominal surgery under general anaesthesia were monitored with a pulse oximeter, electroencephalogram, electromyogram, electrocardiogram and eye and hand movement sensors two nights before and three nights after surgery. Episodic hypoxaemic events were increased significantly after surgery (P < 0.05). Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep decreased significantly on the f...
متن کاملEpisodic nocturnal wandering and complex visual hallucination. A case with long-term follow-up
Episodic nocturnal wandering is rare and thought to be an atypical form of nocturnal epilepsy which is responsive to anticonvulsant therapy. We report a case of adult-onset episodic sleep-walking and daytime complex visual hallucination. Ambulatory EEG recordings suggested that both events were ictal phenomenon. Interictal sphenoidal EEG and SPECT studies revealed an epileptogenic focus in the ...
متن کاملIntroduction Paroxysmal Motor Behaviors Occurring during Sleep Are Classified Either as Sleep-related Epilep- Tic Seizures
PAROXYSMAL MOTOR BEHAVIORS OCCURRING DURING SLEEP ARE CLASSIFIED EITHER AS SLEEP-RELATED EPILEPTIC SEIZURES OR AS PARASOMNIAS. In 1977 Pedley and Guilleminault1 defined an atypical form of epilepsy, called episodic nocturnal wanderings, characterized by paroxysmal ambulation and bizarre behavioral manifestations during sleep. Even in the absence of recorded nocturnal seizures, the presence of i...
