متن کاملEEG and seizure exacerbation induced by carbamazepine in Panayiotopoulos syndrome.
We report on a 4-year 8-month-old boy with Panayiotopoulos syndrome who showed atypical evolution with newly developed absence seizures and EEG exacerbation induced by carbamazepine. Soon after the introduction of carbamazepine, EEGs began to worsen, and finally absence seizures and myoclonic seizures appeared. Immediately after we discontinued carbamazepine, the seizures disappeared and the EE...
متن کاملDistinct Eeg Seizure Patterns Reflect Different Seizure
33 Low-voltage fast-(LVF) and hypersynchronous-(HYP) seizure onset patterns can be recognized 34 in the EEG of epileptic animals and patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Ripples (80-200 Hz) 35 and fast ripples (250-500 Hz) have been linked to each pattern, with ripples predominating 36 during LVF seizures and fast ripples predominating during HYP seizures in the rat pilocarpine 37 model. This ...
