Epilepsiae partialis continuae case
In 1894 prof. Kozhevnikov published the 4th case of a new type of epilepsy, characterized by the fact that the period between seizures is not free, but filled with constant twitching in one half of the body, as if an ordinary epileptic seizure continues constantly, but without loss of consciousness. In two of his cases, before seizures appeared, long before them convulsive twitching was found in the limbs of one side, and these convulsions began from the upper extremities, in which contractures and muscle atrophy were found. These convulsive twitchings reached the degree of an epileptic seizure with complete loss of consciousness. The same cases were described by Dr. Orlovsky in 1895 and Herman in 1896 ("Medical Review").
