Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome (DDMS) is a rare condition that usually presents in early life with recurrent seizures. It can be congenital or can be acquired by perinatal hypoxia, infections, and intracranial hemorrhage. Its frequency remains unknown. It is usually diagnosed by neuroimaging. The classical neuroimaging features are unilateral cerebral hemiatrophy, volume loss, and hyperpneumatization of the sinus. We present the case of a 22-year-old male who presented with complex partial status epilepticus and had a history of recurrent seizures since he was six years old. The diagnosis of DDMS was made on neuroimaging.
