摘要
Seizures have many causes, and physicians should try not to be shortsighted when an apparent cause seems to leap out. The key is being receptive to the fact that a less obvious source of seizures may exist. In this case, new-onset seizures believed consistent with illicit drug use proved to have an infectious cause.
