Abstract

A 49-year-old man presented with dizziness and altered behavior associated with a nonconvulsive seizure. He had a long history of well-controlled tonic-clonic seizures and daily episodes of 10-second staring spells. Despite normal neurological and laboratory examinations, an emergent electroencephalogram showed changes consistent with nonconvulsive generalized status epilepticus.
