Neuron specific enolase as a marker of seizure related neuronal injury

ConclusionsNSE a marker of neuronal injury was elevated in patients with acute central nervous system diseases. It is significantly higher in patients with seizures in comparison to those without seizures. This warrants further studies to document aggressive treatment of seizures in acute neurologically ill patients can reduce neuronal damage.
