Abstract

Hemiconvulsion-hemiplegia-epilepsy syndrome is an uncommon consequence of prolonged focal febrile convulsive seizures in infancy and early childhood. We report two cases of hemiconvulsion-hemiplegia-epilepsy syndrome who presented acutely and had striking neuroimaging findings suggestive of diffuse cytotoxic edema confined to one hemisphere as documented by magnetic resonance imaging, including extensive diffusion weighted imaging abnormalities in both the cases.
