Extracorporeal circulation (ECC) is now being increasingly used in critical care settings. Epileptic seizures are a recognized but under reported complication in patients receiving this care. Acute symptomatic post-operative seizures have been described, as well as remote seizure, mostly in the form of convulsive seizures.
