초록
A 77-year-old male with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis had a hypoxic event. After resuscitation, generalized myoclonus appeared and resolved after two days. Five days after the hypoxic event, myoclonic seizures re-emerged right after performing a somatosensory evoked potential and persisted for ten days. Electroencephalogram revealed frequent bi-hemispheric synchronous spike and waves in the central areas. We suggest that somatosensory evoked potential testing may trigger myoclonic status epilepticus. Underlying cortical degeneration associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis could attribute to this phenomenon.
Abstract
A 77-year-old male with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis had a hypoxic event. After resuscitation, generalized myoclonus appeared and resolved after two days.

Electroencephalogram revealed frequent bi-hemispheric synchronous spike and waves in the central areas. We suggest that somatosensory evoked potential testing may trigger myoclonic status epilepticus. Underlying cortical degeneration associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis could attribute to this phenomenon.
