Multimodal Management of Febrile Infection-Related Epilepsy Syndrome in a 17-Year-Old Male.

New-onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is a clinical presentation, not a specific diagnosis, in which healthy people are suddenly struck by prolonged seizures that do not respond to at least two anti-seizure drugs and do not have a clear structural, toxic, or metabolic cause.Febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) is considered a sub-category of NORSE. Our patient is a 17-year-old male admitted to the pediatric ward after a self-limited convulsive episode at home, noted to occur following five days of upper respiratory infection symptoms accompanied by fever.
