Epileptic Seizure as a Precipitating Factor of Vascular Progressive Supranuclear Palsy: A Case Report
Conclusions: vPSP is a condition that should be considered when a patient presents with a gradually progressive clinical picture suggestive of idiopathic PSP associated with neuroimaging evidence of cerebrovascular disease. The occurrence of epileptic seizures has not been reported before in vPSP but they might trigger the onset or precipitate the course of the PSP-like disorders.
