ABSTRACT

The article presents data on febrile infection-related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) and describes a clinical case. FIRES starts with a refractory status epilepticus in the absence of an obvious acute disease or an apparent structural, metabolic, or toxic cause. The exact etiology of this syndrome remains unknown. Although the name implies an infectious etiology, the causative agent of the infection is generally not identified. Currently, there is no effective treatment or control for this condition since no approach has been proven effective enough in studies.
