Ictal Asystole During Focal Seizures Due to Left Occipital Glioneuronal Tumor: A Report of Case Treated With Cardiac Neuromodulation.

Ictal asystole (IA) is a rare but potentially life-threatening complication of focal epilepsy. The sudden onset of loss of consciousness and drop attacks in a patient with chronic epilepsy should suggest the possibility of this complication.

Ictal crying in epileptic seizures and psychogenic nonepileptic seizures: What are the hints to differentiate them?

Objectives: Ictal crying (IC) is a quite rare semiological manifestation of epileptic seizures (ESs) and it has been mostly reported in psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNESs). However, labeling IC as a pathognomonic sign of PNES can be harmful. We first aimed to investigate IC frequency in ES and PNES and highlight the differences of IC between ES and PNES.
