Introduction: Postictal thoracocervicofacial purpura (PTP) is a rare clinical sign after a seizure episode and may be the only objective sign seen in patients who are unaware of their own seizure disorder. Moreover, it can be the only reason a patient seeks medical care after a seizure activity.
Case Presentation: Herein, we report a 23-year-old, living alone and not known to have any medical illnesses, who presented to our emergency department complaining of asymptomatic purpuric facial rash extending to his neck and upper chest that started suddenly when he woke up that morning.
