Abstract
- The thoracocervicofacial pupura is an obstructive pupura, which occurs in the various conditions with elevated pressure in the thoracic cavity. This pupura can occur as an unusual consequence of epileptic seizure. A 28-year-old man visited due to the syncope and the thoracocervicofacial pupura. His creatine kinase level was elevated. Therefore the cutaneous manifestation is thought to be due to epileptic seizure. Here we report a case of thoracocervicofacial pupura as the unique manifestation of epileptic seizure.
