摘要：
In this first report of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for the simultaneous treatment of seizures and depressive episodes, the authors discuss the use of ECT in the treatment of complex-partial seizures and major depression in a geriatric patient who refused antidepressant and antiepileptic medication. ECT has numerous anticonvulsant effects, including elevated seizure threshold and decreased seizure duration, which make it a useful adjunctive therapy in epilepsy that is refractory or not amenable to treatment with medication.
