The Symphonie fantastique in particular can be interpreted as a composition in which Berlioz deals explicitly with his illness, the idée fixe taking on the role of a seizure motif. Based on an in…
Schizophrenia Associated with Epileptiform Discharges without Seizures Successfully Treated with Levetiracetam
The schizophrenia-like symptoms associated with epileptiform discharges but not overt seizures and the good response to antiepileptic treatment could be interpreted in the context of a (para)epileptic pathomechanism. The EEG alterations might be due to a polygenetic effect due to different genes. Mild immunological mechanisms in the framework of ulcerative colitis and increased ANA titers might have supported the network instability. This case re…
