Abstract
Abstract This case report portrays the case of a child with super-refractory status epilepticus. The seizures were secondary to febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome and the child required multiple anticonvulsants and eventually anesthetic infusions for several weeks. During the treatment, an ethical dilemma arose and was discussed by neurologists, intensivists, and family members.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Pediatric Epilepsy is an English multidisciplinary peer-reviewed international journal publishing articles on all topics related to epilepsy and seizure disorders, epilepsy surgery, neurology, neurosurgery, and neuropsychology in childhood. These topics include the basic sciences related to the condition itself, the differential diagnosis, natural history, and epidemiology of seizures, and the investigation and practical management of epilepsy (including drug treatment, neurosurgery and non-medical and behavioral treatments). Use of model organisms and in vitro techniques relevant to epilepsy are also acceptable. Journal of Pediatric Epilepsy provides an in-depth update on new subjects and current comprehensive coverage of the latest techniques used in the diagnosis and treatment of childhood epilepsy.
