Initial brain MRI: arrows show the focal cortical signal hyperintensity changes on diffusion weighted (A) and T2 weighted images (B) with reduced apparent diffusion coefficient on ADC map (C). Lesions are located in the cortical gray matter and lack arterial distribution. They are topographically compatible with transient postictal MRI changes indicating the presence of cytotoxic and vasogenic edema. Follow-up MRI revealed complete resolution of signal changes and no new other lesions. D FLAIR signal hyperintensity on initial brain MRI (D1) and normalized FLAIR signal intensity on follow-up MRI illustrating the reversibility of postictal MRI abnormalities (D2)
