Hemodialysis-associated seizure is a complication of hemodialysis. This report describes the occurrence of seizures in patients with end stage renal disease on dialysis therapy at the Nephrology Institute of Mogi das Cruzes, São Paulo State, Brazil. A retrospective medical history of 189 patients was reviewed to investigate the occurrence of convulsive seizures during dialytic program. Seven patients with history of seizures were selected but five of them were included in our study. Three patients presented generalized tonic-clonic seizures, one had partial seizure with secondary generalization, and one presented unclassified seizure. Three patients presented seizure just during the dialysis (unique seizure) and one of them presented convulsive status epilepticus. The two other patients had already presented seizures prior the beginning of dialysis. We conclude that seizures in renal failure could be considered as occasional events that do not usually become chronic.

History Of

The authors describe a case in which an 88-year-old black male with a long-standing history of diabetes, blindness, and dialysis therapy presented with idiopathic diabetic bullosum of the left foot distal extremities. The lesions usually are intraepidermal and resolve spontaneously over a period of weeks with no resulting scar formation. The lesions are highly recurrent. In this specific case, the long healing time may be attributed to the age of the patient as well as the decrease in immune and systemic response to injury, weakened by dialysis therapy and his poor arterial status.
