Focal electroencephalographic abnormalities and computerised tomography findings in children with seizures.
A persistent focal abnormality was observed in 157 (16%) electroencephalograms undertaken in 964 consecutive children with epileptic and non-epileptic seizures seen over one year. CT head scans were performed in 121 (77%) of the 157 children with a focus on the EEG; 26 (21%) showed an abnormality, and 21 (81%) of the abnormalities were localised. There was no difference in the proportion of abn...
متن کاملFibrous dysplasia of the skull, with seizures and focal electroencephalographic findings.
Introduction Fibrous dysplasia is a non-hereditary disease of childhood, of unknown etiology, in which fibrous tissue replaces normal bone. There is a wide spectrum of involvement, from asymptomatic isolated bonelesions to severe debilitation and the rare Albright’s syndrome of osteitis fibrosa disseminata, hyperpigmented skin lesions and endocrine dysfunction (Albright et al. 1937). The follow...
متن کاملSymptoms in focal sensory seizures Clinical and electroencephalographic features
PURPOSE Aura is a brief subjective symptom that may represent the initial manifestation of a partial epileptic seizure with objective signs or constitute the entire epileptic attack (focal sensory seizure (FSS)). We studied the electro-clinical features of FSSs recorded in 28 patients. METHODS Using long-term surface video-EEG recordings, we examined 28 patients (from a consecutive series of ...
متن کاملElectroencephalographic Findings in Children with Cerebral Pa
The electroencephalogram (EEG), which allows the pictorial display of abnormal cerebral activity, is central to the identification and even the classification of a number of neurological disorders in both the paediatric and the adult population. This is well demonstrated in the identification and classification of the epilepsies and epilepsy syndromes (1,2). In contrast, the role of the EEG in ...
متن کاملSleep-Related Seizures in Refractory Focal Epilepsy: Electroclinical Findings and Surgical Outcome
Background: Sleep Seizures (SSs) generally occur in refractory focal epilepsy, but their detailed characteristics and circadian patterns are still controversial. The effect of SSs on epilepsy surgery outcome has been addressed in few studies without definitive prognostic value. Objectives: This study investigated the characteristics of SSs and their prognosis in refractory focal epilepsy. M...
