In May 2016, thirteen dogs housed in backyards within a single neighborhood were reported to have developed convulsions and died within a 24 h period. An investigation of the scene by law enforcement resulted in submission of eight dogs for postmortem examination. It was suspected that a rapid
BACKGROUND
Lindane is a possible carcinogen with known teratogenicity and immunologic and neurotoxic properties. Despite reports of seizures, coma, and death associated with its use as well as banning of its environmental use by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the US Food and Drug
Parieto-occipital arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are the second most common site for cranial AVMs. These lesions are defined as eloquent when the nidus involves either the postcentral gyrus or the occipital pole. If located on the dominant hemisphere, these lesions can also involve the arcuate
When attempting to identify a specific epilepsy syndrome, physicians are often unable to make or agree upon a diagnosis. This is further complicated by the fact that the current classification and diagnosis of epilepsy requires specialized training and the use of resources not typically available to
Multiple treatment options are available for patients with hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) including the frontotemporal approaches, the anterior transcallosal transseptal interforniceal approach, the transventricular endoscopic approach, and stereotactic radiosurgery. Relatively large patient series of
Callosotomy has played a unique role in the treatment of epilepsy and in the understanding of human brain function. The pioneering work of Dejerine and Liepmann presenting the first findings of callosal lesion pathology at the turn of the 20th century was accepted but then quickly forgotten. Two
Although the epilepsy refractory to medical therapy can potentially be cured by the resection of epileptogenic tissue, many patients do not qualify for surgery, because epileptogenic tissue can arise from eloquent areas of the brain, where surgical resection would result in severe neurological
Electroencephalography is used in neurocritical care for detection of seizures and assessment of cortical function. Due to limited resolution from scalp electroencephalography, important abnormalities may not be readily detectable. We aimed to identify whether intracranial UNASSIGNED
Concomitant drug administration is a general phenomenon in patients with chronic diseases such as diabetes mellitus. Among the currently available oral antidiabetic drugs, gliclazide is a commonly prescribed drug considering its multiple benefits in diabetic patients. Aprepitant is a
BACKGROUND
Barriers to developing treatments for human status epilepticus include the inadequacy of experimental animal models. In contrast, naturally occurring canine epilepsy is similar to the human condition and can serve as a platform to translate research from rodents to humans. The objectives
