Myoclonic status epilepticus (MSE) within the first 24 hours after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) predicts poor prognosis, enough to discontinue the treatment. In contrast, chronic MSE appearing a few days after CPR is called Lance-Adams syndrome (LAS), which is characterized by preserved intellect and a favorable prognosis. We herein report a case of LAS, which developed after a transient hypoxic event without an overt cardiac arrest due to hematoma formation in the neck after partial glossectomy. Differential diagnosis was also challenging as LAS was developed 8 hours after the hypoxic event.
心肺复苏(CPR)后 24 小时内出现肌阵挛性癫痫持续状态(MSE)预示着预后不良,足以停止治疗。相比之下,CPR 几天后出现的慢性 MSE 称为 Lance-Adams 综合征(LAS),其特征为智力正常且预后良好。本文报告了一例 LAS 病例,该病例发生在因部分舌切除术导致颈部血肿形成后短暂缺氧事件中,无明显心脏骤停。由于缺氧事件发生 8 小时后出现 LAS,因此鉴别诊断也具有挑战性。
