New onset status epilepticus in influenza associated encephalopathy: The presenting manifestation of genetic generalized epilepsy

We hereby present a case of a young woman with no history of seizures or epilepsy who experienced a de novo generalized Non Convulsive Status Epilepticus (NCSE) followed by encephalopathy lasting for several days during influenza B infection.

In this context however, it is possible to observe seizures and/or status epilepticus as the presenting manifestation of a genetic generalized epilepsy.http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2589986420300617Influenza BInfluenza associated encephalopathy (IAE)New onset status epilepticusGeneralized genetic epilepsy
