Three cases of probable neurobrucellosis are reported. The diagnosis was made on the basis of imunological tests. Two patients with a clinical picture of meningomyelitis showed a definitive clinical improvement under tetraciclin and streptomòcin therapy. The imunological reactions found in the record case were even more positive in the spinal fluid than in the blood. In the case 3 with a clinical presentation of cerebral hemorrage the hitopathological studies demonstrated non specific chronic leptomeningitis and local hemorrages in the caudate nucleus bilaterally. The diagnose and treatment of neurobrucellosis are discussed, stressing the importance of an early therapy.

We prospectively follow up 80 mentally healthy women at menacme age, with chronic epilepsy and had had least one seizure in the month preceding the study. We selected 59 patients from whom we were able to observe at least three regular menstrual cycles with seizures. We defined regular, irregular cycle, perimenstrual and ovulation period. According to our concepts we have got 19, 30 and 6 patients with respectively severe, moderate and mild exacerbation of perimenstrual seizures. Using our definitions 6, 20 and 17 patients showed severe, moderate and mild accentuation of seizures during ovulation, while 15 patients showed no ovulatory accentuation. Our attention was drawn to the great number of perimenstrual and ovulatory exacerbation of seizures, according to our criteria. From 55 patients with perimenstrual accentuation of seizures 44 (74.54%) showed exacerbation during the ovulatory period. In our opinion, these data speak out in favor of the hormonal theory to explain these occurrences. We discuss these data based on the avaiable literature. We think the strogen peak is probably the main cause of the increased frequency of epileptic seizures during the ovulation period. New studies, documenting objectively the ovulation and seizures are mandatory to clarify the relationship of these aspects of the female endocrine reproductive physiology in epileptics.
