Seizures and ‘disappearing’ brain lesions
BACKGROUND--Patients with seizures may have abnormal brain imaging. Lesions demonstrated on computerized tomography or magnetic resonance imaging often suggest the underlying cause of the seizures, and may prompt an invasive investigation for diagnosis and treatment. In an increasingly recognized subset of patients however, the imaged lesions spontaneously resolve. While poorly understood, thes...

متن کاملSeizures after Brain Trauma or Neurosurgical Procedures*
Seizures occur in approximately 5% to 25% of patients with brain injury or neurosurgical emergencies. Most of these seizures happen within the first week of the insult and it is therefore standard practice to prescribe antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) during this vulnerable period. The short-term use of AEDs may also affect the metabolic dysfunction in the brain in a way that reduces the risk of epil...
متن کاملEpileptic seizures: Quakes of the brain?
A dynamical analogy supported by five scale-free statistics (the Gutenberg-Richter distribution of event sizes, the distribution of interevent intervals, the Omori and inverse Omori laws, and the conditional waiting time until the next event) is shown to exist between two classes of seizures ("focal" in humans and generalized in animals) and earthquakes. Increments in excitatory interneuronal c...
