Unilateral mydriasis during temporal lobe seizures.
Autonomic signs and symptoms are a common feature of epileptic seizures. Although sympathetic activation responses are predominant, we can also find sympathetic inhibition and even an activation of the parasympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system, especially in partial seizures. These autonomic symptoms during seizures are thought to be the result of neuronal discharges arising from...
متن کاملUnusual ipsilateral hyperkinetic automatisms in SMA seizures
PURPOSE To describe repetitive movements of the right arm possibly originating from the ipsilateral SMA area in two drug-resistant epileptic patients. METHODS Two epileptic patients (one female, one male, 35 and 36 years old, respectively) were submitted to pre-surgical evaluation including history, neurological examination, long-term video-EEG monitoring, interictal and ictal SPET, MRI and f...
متن کاملAuditory manifestations during focal seizures.
Interictal and particularly ictal surface and invasive recordings allow, in most of cases, the precise localization of the cortical area responsible of ictal discharges. During surface Video-EEG the localization could be a little complicated, considering the presence of artefacts, but the occurrence of a low voltage fast activity or a fl attening, permits, coupling with the onset of clinical sy...
متن کاملDecreased Subcortical Cholinergic Arousal in Focal Seizures
Impaired consciousness in temporal lobe seizures has a major negative impact on quality of life. The prevailing view holds that this disorder impairs consciousness by seizure spread to the bilateral temporal lobes. We propose instead that seizures invade subcortical regions and depress arousal, causing impairment through decreases rather than through increases in activity. Using functional magn...
متن کاملSleep-Related Seizures in Refractory Focal Epilepsy: Electroclinical Findings and Surgical Outcome
Background: Sleep Seizures (SSs) generally occur in refractory focal epilepsy, but their detailed characteristics and circadian patterns are still controversial. The effect of SSs on epilepsy surgery outcome has been addressed in few studies without definitive prognostic value. Objectives: This study investigated the characteristics of SSs and their prognosis in refractory focal epilepsy. M...
