We report a seizure-related death in a patient with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy 3 months following a previous generalised tonic-clonic seizure complicated by pulmonary oedema. Seizure-related pulmonary oedema is rare but may indicate an increased susceptibility to epilepsy related death. We consider possible preventative measures for patients presenting with seizure-related pulmonary oedema.
我们报告了一例青少年肌阵挛性癫痫患者在先前一次全身性强直阵挛发作并发肺水肿3个月后发生的与癫痫发作相关的死亡。与癫痫发作相关的肺水肿很少见,但可能表明癫痫相关死亡的易感性增加。我们考虑了针对出现与癫痫发作相关肺水肿的患者可能的预防措施。
