Resumen
GARCIA LUZARDO, M.R.; RODRIGUEZ CALCINES, N.; PAVLOVIC NESIC, S. y SERRANO PERDOMO, S.. Afebrile convulsions with mild acute gastroenteritis. Rev Pediatr Aten Primaria [online]. 2011, vol.13, n.51, pp.403-409. ISSN 1139-7632. https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S1139-76322011000300007.
Febrile seizures are the most frequent in the infancy; they have an excellent prognosis and usually don't need tests or long-term treatment. On the other hand, afebrile convulsions usually need additional explorations and probably anti-epileptic drugs. The existence of convulsions during a mild gastroenteritis wit neither dehydration nor fever is a well known association named para-infectious crisis but probably it is infra-diagnosed. It is important to bear it in mind in order to avoid too many tests and/or antiepileptic long treatment. We describe two cases diagnosed after presenting seizures during a mild gastroenteritis.
