Abstract

A thirty-six-year-old woman experienced tonic-clonic seizures seven times in the last 24 hours. On neurological examination, she could neither speak nor comply with instructions. EEG showed bilateral spike:waves. She had another tonic-clonic seizure and treated with intravenous diphenylhydantoin. Eighteen hours after the control of tonic-clonic seizures, she began to speak and comply with instructions; however, confusion continued during the following 72 hours and EEG abnormality persisted over the following eight days without abnormal neurological signs. A diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus following convulsive status epilepticus was made.
