      lobe epilepsy].
PG  - 301-6
AB  - An 11-year-old boy, who had no remarkable past history, exhibited disorientation 
      and abnormal behavior lasting for several hours. Continuous ictal discharges on 
      his EEG lead to the diagnosis of nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE). The 
      administration of diazepam instantly resulted in the cessation of ictal 
      discharges, associated with clinical recovery. Interictal spikes distributed in 
      frontal lobes are sporadically seen, suggesting frontal lobe as an epileptic 
      focus. After starting medication, he showed excellent clinical course without 
      recurrence of seizure or neurological sequelae. Although NCSE is generally 
      suggestive of poor prognosis, some subtypes of NCSE, such as partial status 
      epilepticus and absence status epilepticus, are not always associated with 
      adverse outcome. The present case suggests that epileptic patients who present 
      NCSE at onset and lack interictal neurological impairments might have good 
      outcome.
