Fig. 4 Case number 4. EEG recording of an episode of ictal headache lasting about 50s during video EEG long-term monitoring. The girl's expression starts changing when rapid activity appears on the EEG. Some seconds later the girl appears to be disturbed by an unpleasant sensation and she moves. Then she complains of a headache. After a few more seconds, the father asks her whether she still has the headache. The girl says “no” when the EEG discharge resolves.
