Endosulfan-Induced Prolonged Super-Refractory Status Epilepticus [PDF]
Endosulfan is a highly toxic pesticide that causes hyperstimulation of the central nervous system by antagonizing gamma aminobutyric acid-mediated inhibition. Seizure is the most important manifestation of endosulfan poisoning, frequently progressing to status epilepticus and refractory status epilepticus. Here, we report a recent case of a 64-year-old
