An unusual behavioural and motor paroxysmal disorder caused by insulinoma-related hypoglycemia: A possible cause of epilepsy misdiagnosis  Francesco Deleo, Sara Matricardi, Giuseppe Didato, Nicola Montano, Vadym Gnatkovsky, Luigi Michele Romito, Giorgio Battaglia, Roberto Spreafico, Flavio Villani  Seizure - European Journal of Epilepsy  Volume 23, Issue 10, Pages 909-911 (November 2014) DOI: 10.1016/j.seizure.2014.06.018 Copyright © 2014 British Epilepsy Association Terms and Conditions

Fig. 1 Relationships between clinical and EEG findings. (a) Basal EEG with eyes closed. (b) Beginning of an episode. Background activity is slowed and theta/delta activity appears mainly in the anterior regions before spreading posteriorly when the acme of the episode is reached (c). (EMG 2 and EMG 3: right and left deltoid muscle, respectively).

Fig. 2 Dyskinetic movements at different times during a video-EEG recorded hypoglycemic episode. Three frames showing sustained dystonic posturing and opisthotonus occurring about 2h after the onset of an episode. The sustained posturing progressively involves the limbs (a and b), followed by the pelvis and trunk (c).
