She had a history of autoimmune thyrotoxicosis and treated hypertension. Given her smoking history, the initial clinical concern was of malignancy. Neurophysiological examination identified severely attenuated responses from the upper and lower limb motor units, with significant neurophysiological incrementation postexercise, indicating a presynaptic neuromuscular junction disorder. Antibody testing showed markedly raised antibodies to the p/q subtype voltage-gated calcium channels, and she was diagnosed with Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS). She was treated with 3,4-diaminopyridine and rituximab to maintain remission. Follow-up serial fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) CT scans have yet to identify an underlying malignancy. LEMS is associated with additional autoimmune diseases in about half of cases.

The excess copper deposits in the liver, brain and cornea. Copper deposition in the brain causes neuronal loss, gliosis and cavitation in the cortex/basal ganglia/brainstem. Cortical lesions increase patients' liability to seizures. Other causes of seizures in Wilson disease include acute copper shifts and pyridoxine deficiency produced by copper chelating drugs and hepatic encephalopathy. Copper-free diets and copper chelating drugs sometimes cause copper deficiency, resulting in anaemia, thrombocytopenia, neuropathy and myeloneuropathy. Hypocupraemia may rarely cause seizures. We describe a patient with Wilson disease who developed refractory focal seizures with impaired awareness that were resistant to multiple antiseizure medications, midazolam, intravenous methylprednisolone (given in view of recent new-onset refractory status epilepticus), parenteral pyridoxine and the treatment for hepatic encephalopathy.
