The article presents modern conceptions on instrumental diagnosis, using electroencephalography, of non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) based on a traditional classification and recommendations of the American Clinical Neurophysiology Society (2012). The descriptive diagnostic parameters for the recognition of different changes in the brain electrical activity in NCSE and their correlations in the structure of traditional and new classifications are presented.

Introduction: Herpes encephalitis is known to affect patients undergoing brain radiotherapy, but early diagnosis and treatment, the foremost determinants of disease outcome, remain challenging in this patient population. This can be due to attribution of symptoms to the brain tumor and radiation side effects, as well as patients' atypical clinical presentation. Here we sought to highlight pearls and pitfalls in the clinical course and diagnostic workup which may facilitate timely diagnosis and improve disease outcome.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFWe discuss an interesting case of a 65-year-old man with multiple dissociative episodes which previously had been assessed as fugues. After evaluation in the memory clinic these episodes appeared to be generalized epileptic seizures, with an electro-encephalographic diagnosis of non-convulsive status epilepticus. Throughout this case, the different features that characterize an epileptic versus a psychiatric etiology are being discussed as well as other differential diagnostic considerations.

The patient was a 69-year-old right-handed woman. She had sensory aphasia, and the brain MRI revealed a subacute phase hemorrhage in the left subcortical temporal lobe. We speculated that the patient had post-ictal aphasia due to symptomatic epileptic seizures associated with cerebral hemorrhage.
