| 초록 | We report a 72-year-old woman with complex partial status epilepticus who showed recurrent episodes of complex visual hallucinations (CVH). Brain diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance images revealed gyriform cortical hyperintensity in the right parietal, occipital and temporal lobes, and brain magnetic resonance angiograhy revealed a hyperintensity in the right dilated middle cerebral artery during ictal period. Ictal N-isopropyl-p-(iodine-123)-iodoamphetamine single photon emission computed tomography ((123)I-IMP-SPECT) with three-dimensional stereotactic surface projection (3D-SSP) 14 days after the onset of the first CVH revealed hyperperfusion in the right latero-inferior occipito-temporal region with relation to motion. CVH spontaneously subsided 17 days after the onset of the first CVH. CVH recurred one year after the first CVH. Ictal (123)I-IMP-SPECT with 3D-SSP revealed marked hyperperfusion in the right lateral parietal region probably with relation to face and figure hallucinations. Ictal scalp EEGs revealed rhythmic polyspikes at 12?Hz with high amplitude (100-200?μV) in bilateral posterior occipital and temporal region with the right side dominance for 20 seconds and more in several occasions. Interictal (123)I-IMP-SPECT with 3D-SSP 28 days after recurrence of CVH revealed marked hypoperfusion in the right lateral parietal region, and recovery of hypoperfusion in the right latero-inferior occipito-temporal region. These findings suggest that ictal CVH might be induced by the spread of epileptic discharges from the right parieto-occipito-temporal region with the old brain contusion (epileptogenic region) to the right latero-inferior occipito-temporal region and the right lateral parietal region (symptomatogenic regions). |
