Eucalyptus Oil-Induced Seizures in Children: A Single-Center Prospective Study.

Objective Eucalyptus oil (EO) is known to have proconvulsant properties. EO is present in many over-the-counter preparations and used orally or topically to treat many ailments. In this study, we seek to describe clinical features, neuroimaging, and electroencephalographic findings and follow up outcome in children with eucalyptus oil-induced seizures (EOIS).

Acute Encephalopathic Presentation of 3-Methylglutaconic Aciduria Type I With a Novel Mutation in AUH Gene.

3-Methylglutaconic aciduria type I (3-MGA I) is a rare inherited disorder of the leucine metabolism pathway due to mutations in the AUH gene for 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA hydratase enzyme and enzyme deficiency. It has a variable phenotypic presentation from infancy to adulthood. Here, we report a three-year-old female patient with normal development presented with acute encephalopathy and status dystonicus.
