The evolving electroclinical syndrome of “epilepsy with ring chromosome 20”
PURPOSE Ring chromosome 20 {r(20)}--manifests as a refractory epilepsy syndrome with complex partial seizures (CPS), nocturnal frontal lobe seizures and non-convulsive status epilepticus (NCSE) in the majority of cases. r20 lacks a specific phenotypic expression or dysmorphic features. Psychomotor development may be normal, making the diagnosis difficult unless there is a high index of suspicio...
متن کاملSleep in ring chromosome 20 syndrome: a peculiar electroencephalographic pattern.
Ring chromosome 20 [r(20)] syndrome is a chromosomal disorder characterized by epilepsy and intellectual disability. Distinctive electroclinical features and wakefulness EEG patterns have been described. The EEG features of sleep have not yet been evaluated. We studied the pattern of sleep in six patients aged 2-59 years who underwent at least one polysomnographic recording. Their sleep pattern...
متن کاملElectroclinical evolution in ring chromosome 20 epilepsy syndrome: A case with severe phenotypic features followed for 25 years
Intractable epilepsy and peculiar EEG patterns characterize ring chromosome 20 syndrome [r(20)], while dysmorphic features, mental retardation and behavioural disturbances are widely variable. The clinical evolution of r(20) over time is not well defined as relatively few cases have been reported. Here we describe a patient with severe clinical features followed for a 25-year period. The patien...
متن کاملRing Chromosome 18: A Case Report
Ring chromosomes are rare chromosomal disorders that usually appear to occur de novo. A ring chromosome forms when due to deletion both ends of chromosome fuse with each other. Depending on the amount of chromosomal deletion, the clinical manifestations may be different. So, ring 18 syndrome is characterized by severe mental growth retardation as well as microcephaly, brain and ocular malformat...
متن کاملA Note on a graph associated to a commutative ring
The rings considered in this article are commutative with identity. This article is motivated by the work on comaximal graphs of rings. In this article, with any ring $R$, we associate an undirected graph denoted by $G(R)$, whose vertex set is the set of all elements of $R$ and distinct vertices $x,y$ are joined by an edge in $G(R)$ if and only if $Rxcap Ry = Rxy$. In Section 2 of this articl...
