Status epilepticus in patients with glioblastoma: Clinical characteristics, risk factors, and epileptological outcome

Epileptic seizures are a common symptom in patients with glioblastoma. 50-70 % of all patients with glioblastoma will develop seizures during the course of their disease[1 –3]. With an incidence of 7-16 %, status epilepticus (SE) represents a less frequent, but severe complication of epilepsy in glioblastoma patients[4–8].
