Occipital seizures in Lafora disease: a further case documented by EEG

P Tinuper et al. Clin Electroencephalogr. 1985 Jul.

Abstract

The authors present the case of a patient with Lafora disease proven by skin biopsy, who suffered two occipital seizures recorded on EEG and provoked by intermittent photic stimulation. On the basis of data in the literature and their present experience, the authors suggest the involvement of the occipital lobes as a whole in the epileptogenic activity.
