In this case, a 35-year-old male is brought to a community hospital emergency department by ambulance having suffered an apparent seizure in the street. He is well known to the nurses and physician who see him. He has had several visits for seizures, and he has a history of depression. He has had electroencephalography studies and a computed tomography scan of his head in the past and has had assessments by both neurology and psychiatry. While he is in the department, he has an atypical seizure. There is a consensus among the ED staff that his seizures may be factitious. After a period of observation, he is discharged. Approximately 6 months later, the physician hears that the patient has died and tracks down his autopsy report, which had a surprising finding.
