Abstract
Etomidate was given intravenously to 12 epileptic patients undergoing craniotomy for surgical removal of their seizure focus. Electroencephalograms were recorded by means of subdural electrodes. Nine of the 12 patients showed an increase in epileptiform activity. In six of the nine patients, the activity was marked.
