Seizure types have been described that do not conform to traditional classification schemes. We present another unusual type characterized by focal onset with secondary generalization, that is followed immediately by continued focal activity that generalizes again without an intervening break. Better understanding of these seizure types may allow improved targeted therapies and help shed light on the mechanistic underpinnings of epilepsy.
已经描述了一些不符合传统分类方案的癫痫发作类型。我们展示了另一种不寻常的类型，其特征为局灶性发作继发全面性发作，随后立即出现持续的局灶性活动，再次全面性发作且无中间间歇。对这些癫痫发作类型的更好理解可能会带来改进的靶向治疗，并有助于阐明癫痫的机制基础。
