Abstract:
Epileptic nystagmus(EN) refers to recurrent attacks of nystagmus caused by a cortical seizure activity. There have been a few reports of EN associated with stroke and tumor. But EN associated with a cavernous angioma has never been reported. We report, therefore, clinical, electroencephalographic, radiologic and pathologic findings of a patient with EN associated with a cavernous angioma.
