Description
<p>There are only a few reports on Go-induced epilepsy. We hereby report a case of Go-induced epilepsy and its ictal electroencephalography (EEG) findings, and treatment. A 71-year-old man reported to our hospital for seizures that lasted for several minutes after he had played Go for approximately an hour. Ictal EEG showed focal to bilateral tonic-clonic seizures of right parietal origin. He was administered levetiracetam 500 mg before the games, and he participated without seizures for more than a year. Go-induced epilepsy is considered to have a focal onset, and it may be controlled with antiepileptic drugs before the games.</p>
