Ictal catatonia as a manifestation of nonconvulsive status epilepticus.
Three patients with EEG documented ictal catatonia, a nonconvulsive status epilepticus, who responded dramatically to intravenous phenytoin are described. The EEG showed continuous bilateral pseudoperiodic sharp waves and spike discharges in one patient, spike and wave complexes were seen prominently in the right fronto-central region in another, and the EEG of the third patient showed periodic lateralising epileptiform discharges during the catatonic state. We postulate that such catatonia was due to involvement of the limbic system by seizure activity.

Peripheral neuropathy with hypophosphatemia in a patient receiving intravenous hyperalimentation.
We have described a patient receiving intravenous hyperalimentation in whom hypophosphatemia resulted in a neurologic syndrome characterized by ophthalmoplegia, ataxia, and areflexic paralysis of all extremities, requiring respiratory assistance. We have discussed pertinent literature related to neurologic dysfunction as a result of hypophosphatemia.

Spinal epidural abscess.
We present three cases of spinal epidural abscess. Initial presentation of localized spinal pain and tenderness along with fever should lead one to suspect the diagnosis. An emergency myelography and prompt treatment with appropriate antibiotics is necessary to prevent catastrophic neurologic deficit.
