Abstract:
Vomiting is a typical symptom of cerebellar hemorrhage. Usually only supportive care such as antiemetic drugs are available. A 76-year-old woman presented in a light coma. A head CT demonstrated right cerebellar hemorrhage and the hematoma was surgically evacuated. Her intractable vomiting started 3 weeks after surgery. Because her vomiting was unexplained, we checked her EEG, which demonstrated generalized periodic discharges. We diagnosed her with ictal vomiting. Anti-seizure medication was administered and vomiting was rapidly controlled. In conclusion, physicians must be aware that vomiting may rarely occur as a sign of seizures and status epilepticus.
