چکیده
Case presentation: A 2-year-old girl with refractory epilepsy since 4 months of age and persistent daily seizures even optimized therapy. At 15 age, she was presented global delay in neuropsychomotor development, axial hypotonia, no interaction. There also hyperreflexia, clonus, delayed dentition. Initial metabolic screening MRI were standard. The electroencephalogram displayed slowed disorganized baseline activity. She born at term good general condition, early jaundice requiring phototherapy. When asked about other complaints, chronic diarrhea difficulty gaining weight raised. Her family members healthy except for migraine her mother maternal half-siblings. 20 hospitalized epileptic status, continuous sedation. the time exhibited diffuse atrophy intensity signal changes basal ganglia. Exome sequencing test showed a compound heterozygous mutation SDHA gene confirming diagnosis complex II mitochondrial disease.

Background The X-linked cyclin-dependent kinase like 5 (CDKL5/STK9) gene has been shown to be responsible for a severe encephalopathy condition characterized by early onset of epilepsy and severe developmental delay. CDKL5 mutations have been shown to be more frequent among female patients. Results Here we report a 6- month male patient, second child of a healthy non consanguineous in the Irani...
متن کاملRecessive germline SDHA and SDHB mutations causing leukodystrophy and isolated mitochondrial complex II deficiency
BACKGROUND Isolated complex II deficiency is a rare form of mitochondrial disease, accounting for approximately 2% of all respiratory chain deficiency diagnoses. The succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) genes (SDHA, SDHB, SDHC and SDHD) are autosomally-encoded and transcribe the conjugated heterotetramers of complex II via the action of two known assembly factors (SDHAF1 and SDHAF2). Only a handful of...
متن کاملMitochondrial complex I gene variant associated with early age at onset in spinocerebellar ataxia type 2.
BACKGROUND A common mitochondrial complex I gene polymorphism (10398G) is reported to be inversely associated with the risk of Parkinson disease. We hypothesized that this variant might have a protective effect on the central nervous system and therefore might delay the onset of symptoms in spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 (SCA2). OBJECTIVE To assess the association of the 10398G polymorphism wi...
متن کاملEmotion Processing in Patients with Early- and Late-Onset Temporal Lobe Epilepsy
Objective: Temporal Lobe Epilepsy (TLE) can contribute to various emotional symptoms by damaging the temporal lobe. This study aimed at investigating emotion processing in patients with early- and late-onset TLE compared to a healthy group. Methods: In this causal-comparative study, 60 patients with diagnosed TLE were compared to 60 healthy controls to identify emotion processing styles. The d...
