Hashimoto Thyroiditis
Solid papillary thyroid carcinoma (SV-PTC) is a rare variant which is mainly observed in young patients with a history of exposure to ionising radiations. Neoplasms belonging to such category generally carry RET-PTC (REarranged during Transfection- Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma) fusions and seem to have a slightly[…][ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Epilepsy
Focal seizures began at 5 years and were refractory to medical treatment.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
(EEG) hallmark of focal-onset seizures is the focal interictal epileptiform spike or sharp wave.[emedicine.com]
At 9 years, video EEG monitoring showed a striking pattern of interictal slow spike-wave and paroxysmal fast activity, maximal over the right, initially unaffected, hemisphere[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

West Syndrome
Brain MRI revealed no abnormal findings although interictal EEG demonstrated left centro-parieto-temporal localized spike foci.[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
A “leading” spike had a focal origin in all 42 type I spasms and involved the pre‐ or postcentral gyrus within 0.1 s in 37 of these spasms.[doi.org]
The spikes usually alternate randomly between focal, multifocal, and generalized discharges at different moments within a brief record.[web.archive.org]
Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy
Fragmented generalized spike-and-wave can appear focal or multi-focal but usually is not consistently seen in 1 area.[medlink.com]
The EEG signature of IGE is bisynchronous, symmetric, and generalized spike-wave complex; although focal, irregular, and so called "fragments" of discharges are not uncommon[ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The morphology of the focal spike-and-wave typically appears similar to the generalized spike-and-wave. Ictal.[medlink.com]
Juvenile Absence Epilepsy
Although focal spikes can occur, if they consistently arise in 1 area, consider structural brain abnormality. Caution . If slow spike-and-wave ( Imaging.[medlink.com]
Previous clinical and EEG studies show a relationship between generalized and focal spike–wave discharges in some situations.[academic.oup.com]
Interictal and ictal EEG is characterized by focal generalized spike-wave discharge occasionally prominent in the frontal region.[1pdf.net]

Organic Brain Syndrome
An organic brain syndrome ( OBS ), also known as an organic brain disease/disorder ( OBD ), an organic mental syndrome ( OMS ), or an organic mental disorder ( OMD ), is a syndrome or disorder of mental function whose cause is alleged to be known as organic ( physiologic ) rather than purely of the mind.
