RESUMEN
@#We report a case of 74-year-old lady, presented with recurrent jargon aphasia as simple partial status epilepticus (SPSE) which lasted for a few days to a few weeks, following a brain abscess removal from the left temporo-parieto-occipital region at the age of 71 years. The ictal activity on electroencephalogram was documented at left posterior quadrant, where marked hyperperfusion was clearly visualized by perfusion image acquired with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) using pulsed arterial spin-labeling (PASL). Jargon aphasia as a primary feature of simple partial status epilepticus is so uncommon that only few cases have been reported. Furthermore, this report suggests that MRI using PASL is a promising method not only to localize the seizure foci but also to follow up the corresponding regional cerebral blood flow changes noninvasively.
