Postictal Neurogenic Stunned Myocardium
Neurol 64:1977-1978, Chin,P.S.,et al, 2005
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Neurogenic left ventricular dysfunction is a recognized complication of subarachnoid hemorrhage, but this condition has not been reported after seizure activity. The authors present two cases of neurogenic stunned myocardium after convulsive seizures, suggesting that ictal activity can lead to sympathetically mediated cardiac injury.
