Achados Incidentais, Eletroencefalografia, Testes ObrigatóriosResumo
O eletroencefalograma é um exame de fácil realização que vem sendo amplamente indicado para condições não relacionadas à epilepsia. A identificação de atividade epileptiforme nestas circunstâncias deve ser interpretada de forma cautelosa, pois descargas focais ou generalizadas podem ser encontradas em indivíduos normais e sem quaisquer queixas. O objetivo deste estudo é realizar uma revisão de literatura quanto à presença de alterações epileptiformes no EEG de indivíduos sem epilepsia. O diagnóstico equivocado de epilepsia nestas situações é comum, porém a taxa de ocorrência de crises é muito baixa, o que não deve motivar o uso desnecessário de fármacos antiepilépticos.
