Mitochondrial encephalomyopathy lactic acidosis and strokelike episodes mimicking occipital idiopathic epilepsy.

Pediatric neurology - 1 Aug 2009

Abstract excerpt

We report on a 19-year-old man with a 9-year history of occipital seizures characterized by deviation of the eyes and tonic ipsilateral turning of the head during sleep, initially diagnosed as idiopathic childhood occipital epilepsy, Gastaut type. The eventual development of status epilepticus, associated with a T(1) hypointense as well as T(2), fluid-attenuated inversion recovery, and diffusion-weighted...
