A 51-year-old male patient presented with a generalized tonic-clonic type seizure. He had a history of renal cell carcinoma and had received axitinib 2 weeks before this seizure event due to the unresponsiveness to the previous chemotherapeutics. He did not experience any neurologic symptoms previously. His vital rhythm showed elevated blood pressure and tachycardia. He became deeply drowsy soon after the seizure attack, with no definite later-alizing or localizing signs.

The pupillary light reflex is a component of bedside neurological examinations in neurological intensive care units (neuroICUs). A quantitative pupillometer provides a non-invasive and objective pupil reactivity parameter clinically significant for changes in the pupillary light reflex in neuroICUs. This article reviews the physiology and importance of the pupillary light reflex and the parameters of quantitative pupillometers. Moreover, this review discusses the clinical applications of quantitative pupillometers for post-cardiac arrest prognostication and monitoring of elevated intracranial pressure and neurological worsening in stroke, seizures, and other neurological diseases in the neuroICU. Quantitative pupillometry is a routine part of neurological examinations and an important monitoring tool for neurological diseases in neuroICUs.

We report a patient with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) showing extensive cerebral microbleeds. A 59-year-old man presented with generalized tonic-clonic seizures. After admission, he was diagnosed with HIV infection while evaluating for pneumonia. Ten days after antiretroviral therapy (ART), DIC occurred as a result of pneumo-

Infrequently, changes in pupillary light response have been described with seizures; however, the loss of pupillary response with documented Neurological Pupil index has not been well established in patients with seizures
