Abstract
10 cases of nonconvulsive status epilepticus following the termination of generalized convulsive seizures are reported. The stupor status occurred in generalized primary epilepsy (6 cases), in generalized secondary epilepsy (2 cases), and in partial epilepsy (2 cases). Except for generalized secondary epilepsy, the status epilepticus was successfully treated by the intravenous application of anticonvulsants. The therapeutic significance of a differentiation of postconvulsive stupor status from postictal confusional states was stressed.Keywords
