Bradycardia and asystole induced by partial seizures

A case report and literature review

Orrin Devinsky, MD, Steven Pacia, MD and Gopal Tatambhotla, MD

From the Department of Neurology, Hospital for Joint Diseased NYU Medical Center, New York, NY.

Article abstract Bradyarrhythmias associated with partial seizures are uncommon, with most reported patients having temporal lobe seizure foci on scalp EEG recordings. We report a patient with bradycardia and sinus arrest during a complex partial seizure documented during bilateral subdural EEG and EEG and simultaneous video and EEG recordings. The seizure began in the left temporal lobe and spread to the right temporal region, with bradycardia occurring 55 seconds after ictal onset and asystole after 60 seconds.
