Abstract

Periodic lateralized epileptiform discharges(PLEDs) are usually seen in acute and subacute cerebral lesions. Occasionally PLEDs could be observed in persistent structural lesions. We observed PLEDs-plus in a patient with right basal ganglionic hemorrhage, at 10 months and 13 months after the stroke. The patients suffered two seizures 3 months and 5 days before recording of EEG. PLEDs-plus may persist as an interictal abnormal finding and the rhythmic discharge of that may be increased by a seizure.
