In six children, aged from 8 to 12 years, presenting with primary generalized epilepsy a significant rise in plasma ACTH and prolactin levels (as compared with levels measured 5 days later) was observed either during a generalized seizure demonstrated by EEG (3 cases) or within 1 hour of a generalized seizure (3 cases). The neurophysiological basis for these post-epileptic endocrine disturbances is a sudden depression of dopaminergic and GABA-ergic pathways. As a result, these endocrine changes, already well documented in adults, may be regarded as a good biological marker of the epileptic origin of a paroxysmal attack.
