seizures recurrence after med withdraw
Female patient of age 17 history of seizures today Taking medication for same since two years But stop by herself one months ago
Withdrawal of antiepileptics in 2yrs is too early that is even in a young girl of 16yrs Granuloma calcified in rt parietal area most common is tuberculoma or calcified neurocystosarcosis It can be subjected to neurosurgical intervention and can be offered permanant cure with a rider to continue medicines for at least 5yrs or so or depending on post surgical results Right now restart her regime

A 13-year-old male child suddenly fainted at home. He flew from Bangalore to Chandigarh yesterday. Weight: 35-36 kg. Past history: He has a previous history of headaches and convulsions. He also has a walking abnormality in his left leg from birth. He walks on his toes on the left side. The doctor suggested an MRI brain after this episode of unconsciousness. Currently I do not have his previous reports. Please give your valuable opinion. And feel free to ask any query.
