Stato di male gelastico associato a terapia con Levetiracetam in età pediatrica.

We describe a 5-years-old white girl affected by intractable symptomatic focal epilepsy, cerebral palsy and severe psychomotor delay. Six days after starting treatment with levetiracetam, she developed a gelastic status documented by video-EEG. Status epilepticus disappeared after DZP administration and levetiracetam was immediately stopped.
