Figures & Tables

Figure 1.

a) Top EEG shows atypical absence status epilepticus with ictal generalized spike-and-wave discharges with a frequency of 3 Hz. b) Middle EEG shows ictal generalized paroxysmal fast activity accompanied by an intense tonic contraction induced by benzodiazepine infusion c) Last EEG shows, slow background activity superimposed with fast rhythms caused by phenobarbital use without ictal or inter-ictal discharges. Patient was on the 8 months of his ketogenic diet.
