Opioids are commonly used and abused substance worldwide. Opioid withdrawal may manifest as severe muscle cramps, diarrhea, rhinorrhea, lacrimation, piloerection, yawning, and fever. Here, we report a 32 year old man with heroin dependence, presented with new onset generalized tonic-clonic seizure following heroin withdrawal. Seizure is a life-threating condition and rare phenomenon in opioid withdrawal therefore, reporting of this case is important. It may help clinician to be aware and consider seizure as a part of opioid withdrawal.

Review Of The Literature

Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal (IP) chemotherapy (HIPEC) is believed to improve outcomes in well-selected patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis. However, morbidity and mortality rates associated with this procedure are substantial. Here, we describe the case of a previously healthy young man who underwent CRS with hyperthermic IP oxaliplatin and developed one episode of tonic-clonic seizure on the second postoperative day.

Supportive Management

Dialysis disequilibrium syndrome (DDS) is a rare syndrome characterised by neurological symptoms related to cerebral oedema. New patients who are started on haemodialysis are at the greatest risk for developing dialysis disequilibrium syndrome. Classical DDS develops during or immediately after haemodialysis. It is a generally self-limiting condition and settles with supportive management. Our case report describes DDS in a patient on chronic haemodialysis. She developed a tonic-clonic seizure shortly after completing 4 h of haemodialysis. This occurred in the context of having missed one session of dialysis, but with no new changes made to her usual dialysis regime. She was managed supportively in the intensive care unit and made a full recovery.

Vein Of Galen Aneurysm

Vein of Galen aneurysm is a rare pathology, representing less than 1% of intracranial vascular malformations. We report on a 65 years-old man who experienced a generalized tonic-clonic seizure. Brain imaging showed a large calcified expanding mass in the pineal region, confirming the diagnosis of a vein of Galen aneurysm. Because of the spontaneous thrombosis of the malformation, there was no need for microsurgical or endovascular treatment and he is been regularly followed since that.
