Background:
- Status epilepticus (SE) is a neurological emergency characterized by prolonged or recurrent seizures.
- Nonconvulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) presents diagnostic challenges, often with subtle or atypical clinical manifestations.
- Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a common form of focal epilepsy, frequently associated with complex partial seizures.
