ABSTRACT
SUMMARY:
Subclinical rhythmic EEG discharge of adults is an uncommon variant that represents a diagnostic challenge in the clinical practice because it can be mistaken for an electrographic seizure. We present a case series of four patients who underwent EEG because of suspicious events or an unclear medical history of epilepsy. In all cases, the EEG revealed atypical features including focal and asymmetric distribution, presentation during NREM and REM sleep, rhythmic activity in the delta range with a notched appearance and blocked by eyes opening.
