Lesson of the month: Cytotoxic lesions of the corpus callosum (CLOCCs) in status epilepticus.

A 26-year-old man was diagnosed with epilepsy a few months previously and admitted with status epilepticus. Computed tomography (CT) of the brain and CT venography were unremarkable. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain showed evidence of possible acute focal infarction in the splenium of the corpus callosum that showed a true restricted diffusion.
