Pediatric Astrocytoma Causing Intractable Epilepsy
Intractable epilepsy can stem from numerous causes, including brain tumors. Here we describe an unusual presentation of a child with medically refractory epilepsy and developmental delay. She was determined to be an atypical case for epilepsy surgery due to the presence of multifocal lesions on MRI and poorly localizable ictal and interictal EEG features. A surgical resection was performed on t...

Seizures may be the first and the major presenting feature of an inborn error of metabolism (IEM), for example in a neonate with pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy. In other IEMs, seizures may be preceded by other major symptoms: by a reduced level of consciousness in a child with an organic acidaemia or urea cycle defect; or by loss of skills, progressive weakness, ataxia, and upper motor signs in ...
متن کاملA Novel Gene Causing a Mendelian Audiogenic Mouse Epilepsy
Frings mice are a model of generalized epilepsy and have seizures in response to loud noises. This phenotype is due to the autosomal recessive inheritance of a single gene on mouse chromosome 13. Here we report the fine genetic and physical mapping of the locus. Sequencing of the region led to identification of a novel gene; mutant mice are homozygous for a single base pair deletion that leads ...
