[Syndrome of disseminated intravascular coagulation in the pathogenesis of vasculo-hypoxic encephalopathy in status epilepticus]. / Sindrom disseminirovannogo vnutrisosudistogo svertyvaniia v patogeneze sosudisto-gipoksicheskoi éntsefalopatii pri épilepticheskom statuse.

On the basis of examining the blood coagulation system and the pathomorphological changes in 20 patients with the epileptic status it is concluded that these patients have the disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome (DIC-syndrome). It is supposed that the DIC-syndrome is the only possible pathology of the blood coagulation system in patients with the epileptic status not depending on the latter's cause. By blocking the microcirculation the DIC-syndrome is one of the main causes of the vasohypoxic encephalopathy which develops in epileptic status.
