Electroencephalography and Clinical Neurophysiology, 1954
Abstract A case of “epilepsia partialis continua” with myoclonic twitches in the muscles of the right leg is described. The electroencephalogram and the electrocorticogram showed a spike focus localized to the pre-central gyrus on the medial surface of the left hemisphere. The spikes were regularly followed after a latency of 27 to 34 msec.

SUMMARYThe pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for KojevnikofFs syndrome are still not fully understood. In a family without any history of epilepsy in parents, grandparents or other relatives, three brothers died from unexplained brain disease accompanied by focal epileptic seizures at ages 17 months, 5 years and 20 years respectively.

‘Hand mechanogram’ in epilepsia partialis continua
Practical Neurology, 2021Epilepsia partialis continua manifests as low-frequency, rhythmic involuntary movements of a focal body part. We report a young man, HIV-positive and with syphilis, who developed right-hand epilepsia partialis continua associated with a small left-sided cortico-subcortical frontal lesion. A pen and paper test provided ‘mechanographic’ data on frequency,

Archives of Neurology, 1977
Clinical, EEG, and autopsy findings were studied in 32 patients with epilepsia partialis continua. The seizures occurred at different ages and with diverse diseases of the brain. Facial and distal limb muscles were preferentially involved. Often, seizures suggested multifocal origin within a limited cerebral region, with low-amplitude, irregular ...

Ketotic hyperglycemia and epilepsia partialis continua
Neurology, 2001Epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) may occur during nonketotic hyperglycemia but has not been described with diabetic ketoacidosis. The authors report a patient with EPC associated with ketotic hyperglycemia. Brain MRI showed two areas of abnormal signal intensity in the left precentral gyrus and in the right cerebellar hemisphere.

A case of epilepsia partialis continua was caused by a subdural hematoma. Muscular contractions occurred primarily in the abdominal region. In this instance, the etiology of the syndrome is unique, and the primary involvement of the abdominal musculature is remarkable.

Alcohol‐responsive epilepsia partialis continua
Epileptic Disorders, 2014Epilepsia partialis continua is typically associated with lesions of the cerebral cortex. However, subcortical lesions can also cause this condition. We present a patient with epilepsia partialis continua who failed to respond to conventional anticonvulsant medications but experienced a dramatic transient response to alcohol and a subsequent response ...

Epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) is a rare form of focal status epilepticus characterized by continuous regular or irregular clonic muscular twitching affecting a limited part of the body, sometimes aggravated by action or sensory stimuli, and occurring for a minimum of 1 h.

Abdominal epilepsia partialis continua in neurocysticercosis
Epileptic Disorders, 2019ABSTRACTEpilepsia partialis continua (EPC) of abdominal muscles is a rare entity with variable clinical localization and aetiology. A 25‐year‐old man presented with sudden onset of intermittent focal myoclonic movements involving the abdominal muscles on the right side exclusively, lasting from 20 minutes to an hour. Brain MRI revealed a ring‐enhancing

Epilepsia Partialis Continua Associated With Levamisole
Pediatric Neurology, 2011Epilepsia partialis continua is defined as a spontaneous regular or irregular clonic muscular twitching affecting a limited part of the body, occurring for a minimum of 1 hour and recurring at intervals of less than 10 seconds. Levamisole is used as an immunomodulating medication in patients with recurrent aphthous ulcers. Evidence suggests that it can
