Recurrent coma

R D Sheth. Semin Pediatr Neurol. 1996 Sep.

Abstract

Recurrent episodes of coma are usually associated with a metabolic disorder. A healthy 9-year-old boy of normal intellect and intact corpus callosum on neuroimaging had recurrent episodes of coma associated with profound spontaneous hypothermia. An evaluation, differential diagnosis and insights into the pathogenesis of this disorder are discussed.
