Ictal asystole has been identified as a cause of SUDEP in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy. Herein, we report a patient who developed cardiac arrest during the ictal period of frontal lobe epilepsy.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Case Report:<\/jats:title>\n A 35-year-old man presented with a history of progressive nocturnal stiffness in the left lower extremity since 6 years and that of paroxysmal episodes of altered consciousness. In the last 2 years, he sustained epileptic seizures which presented as closed eyes, wheezy phlegm in the throat, facial pallor, moist cold skin, clenched fists, and limb stiffness; the episodes lasted 3\u20134 min. The seizures did not respond to antiepileptic therapy. Twenty four-hour electrocardiography monitoring showed transient atrial tachycardia, supraventricular premature beats, and cardiac arrest.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n Frontal lobe epilepsy may be a potential cause of SUDEP. Clinician should be aware of this condition.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0028-3886.319218","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,28]],"date-time":"2021-12-28T02:21:28Z","timestamp":1640658088000},"page":"737-739","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Cardiac Arrest in Frontal Lobe Epilepsy"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"69","author":[{"given":"Xinyue","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Li","family":"Cui","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Weihong","family":"Lin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S6","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1157.1997.tb06130.x","article-title":"Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy: Terminology and definitions","volume":"38","author":"Nashef","year":"1997","journal-title":"Epilepsia"},{"key":"R2-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"319","DOI":"10.1007\/s11910-010-0116-4","article-title":"Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy","volume":"10","author":"Shorvon","year":"2010","journal-title":"Curr Neurolo Neurosci Rep"},{"key":"R3-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"415","DOI":"10.1016\/j.yebeh.2012.12.018","article-title":"Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy: From the lab to the clinic setting","volume":"26","author":"Terra","year":"2013","journal-title":"Epilepsy Behav"},{"key":"R4-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"19","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eplepsyres.2016.08.007","article-title":"The pathophysiology of cardiac dysfunction in epilepsy","volume":"127","author":"Ravindran","year":"2016","journal-title":"Epilepsy Res"},{"key":"R5-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"179","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1528-1157.2003.15101.x","article-title":"Cardiac asystole in epilepsy: Clinical and neurophysiologic features","volume":"44","author":"Rocamora","year":"2003","journal-title":"Epilepsia"},{"key":"R6-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"415","DOI":"10.1016\/S1059-1311(00)90529-6","article-title":"Ictal tachycardia: Its discriminating potential between temporal and extratemporal seizure foci","volume":"10","author":"Garcia","year":"2001","journal-title":"Seizure"},{"key":"R7-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"167","DOI":"10.1016\/j.seizure.2010.11.017","article-title":"Seizure induced cardiac asystole in epilepsy patients undergoing long term video-EEG monitoring","volume":"20","author":"Lanz","year":"2011","journal-title":"Seizure"},{"key":"R8-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"16","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1528-1167.2010.02972.x","article-title":"The treatment of ictal asystole with cardiac pacing","volume":"52","author":"Moseley","year":"2011","journal-title":"Epilepsia"},{"key":"R9-41-20240907","first-page":"69","article-title":"Cardiac arrhythmias during or after epileptic seizures","volume":"87","author":"van der Lende","year":"2016","journal-title":"J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry"},{"key":"R10-41-20240907","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"434","DOI":"10.1212\/01.wnl.0000266595.77885.7f","article-title":"Video-electrographic and clinical features in patients with ictal asystole","volume":"69","author":"Schuele","year":"2007","journal-title":"Neurology"}],"container-title":["Neurology India"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/0028-3886.319218","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,26]],"date-time":"2026-08-26T19:38:38Z","timestamp":1787773118000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/www.ovid.com\/10.4103\/0028-3886.319218"}},"subtitle":["A Potential Cause of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2021,5]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"3","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2021]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.4103\/0028-3886.319218","relation":{},"ISSN":["0028-3886"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0028-3886","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2021,5]]}}}
