Somatosensory-evoked reflex epilepsy is characterized by seizures in response to specific stimuli. It is highly uncommon for somatosensory-evoked focal seizures to be caused by movement or a change in posture. Reflex epilepsy induced by both somatosensory and proprioceptive stimulations has not been previously reported. In this study, we present a case of reflex epilepsy evoked by somatosensory and proprioceptive stimulation in a patient with hypertrophic cranial pachymeningitis. After comparing our patient with other cases of previously reported somatosensory-evoked reflex epilepsy, we determined that our patient had an unusual cause of reflex epilepsy.
