| Resumen : |
Psychogenic nonepileptic seizures (PNES) are episodes of seizure-like symptoms that are not associated with epileptiform discharges on electroencephalogram (EEG). They can be remarkably difficult to distinguish from epileptic seizures: both may involve alterations in mental status and behavior, sensory or perceptual disturbances, as well as simple or complex motor patterns. Pictorial expressions of PNES have always attracted attention from the lay public and medical practitioners alike, by showing the rich variety of semiologies seen in the condition and its differences with epileptic seizures. In this article, we present two new contemporary artistic descriptions by the Canadian artist Iris Hauser about PNES. The depictions highlight key signs seen in PNES such as “eyes closed during events”, “the hyperextension of the back and limbs”, and the “claw-like finger posturing”. We believe that the drawings can provide a valuable educational component in the initial assessment of patients suspected of having PNES as a training tool to identify and refer patients for more advanced testing. |
