Structural epilepsy in a patient with multiple sclerosis

https://doi.org/10.30629/2658-7947-2023-28-1-62-66

Abstract

Clinical case of structural epilepsy in a patient with multiple sclerosis is presented, which shows the achievement of seizure’s stable remission, which is extremely rare in forms of epilepsy with a multi-focal lesion another etiology and a long history of the disease without combination with multiple sclerosis. Video-EEG monitoring, positron emission tomography of the brain with 18F-deoxyglucose, expand the possibilities of diagnosing form of epilepsy in patients with combined pathology, which allows prescribing adequate therapy.
