RESUMO
Objective To analyze the influence of different types of seizures and nonepileptic events on peripheral white blood cell (WBC)counts. Methods We prospectively collected blood samples from all patients and detered WBC count to evaluate the relation of each type of seizure,duration,frequencies,and ttme lapse between a seizure and collection of blood sample to peripheral WBC count. Results Peripheral WBC count was elevated in about 50% cases after a generalized seizure. The length of a seizures was positively associated, whereas its frequencies and the lapse time was negatively correlated with the increase in WBC counts. Conclusion Peripheral WBC counts increase significantly after a generalized seizure.
