Abstract

This report describes a 9-year-old child with status epilepticus and cat scratch disease. This patient's focal seizures and electroencephalographic changes persisted for 18 months after status epilepticus. This patient represents the third reported case of persistent focal seizures or electroencephalographic changes after status epilepticus secondary to cat scratch disease. This finding suggests that cat scratch encephalopathy may be a cause of localization-related epilepsy, and should be investigated when evaluating a patient with new-onset partial seizures.

摘要

本报告描述了一例伴有癫痫持续状态和猫抓病的 9 岁儿童。该患者癫痫持续状态后 18 个月仍存在局灶性发作和脑电图改变。该患者是第三例报道的癫痫持续状态继发于猫抓病后持续性局灶性发作或脑电图改变的病例。这一发现表明，猫抓病性脑病可能是局灶性相关癫痫的病因之一，在评估新发部分性发作患者时应进行调查。
