A controlled prospective investigation of psychiatric comorbidity in temporal lobe epilepsy.

abstract：PURPOSE:To describe four patients with stimulus-sensitive seizures and myoclonus following severe hypoxic-ischemic injury. METHODS:In 22 months, four adult patients with myoclonus, generalized tonic-clonic, and clonic seizures following tactile stimulation were identified. EEG and hospital records were reviewed. RESU...
