Subependymal heterotopia: a distinct neuronal migration disorder associated with epilepsy.
Subependymal heterotopia has recently been recognised as a cause of epilepsy, but the clinical and investigational features have not been fully described. The clinical, psychometric, imaging, and electroencephalographic features of 13 adult patients with subependymal heterotopia and epilepsy have been reviewed. Age at seizure onset ranged from 18 months to 20 years (median 13 years). There were...
متن کاملA case report of surgically treated drug resistant epilepsy associated with subependymal nodular heterotopia
Subependymal nodular heterotopia (SNH) is a cortical development malformation that is commonly associated with medically resistant epilepsy. Cases of SNH are challenging to treat surgically because there are typically multiple nodules, which may be involved in epileptogenesis. Moreover, dual pathology may exist in these patients. Here, we present a case with unilateral subependymal heterotopic ...
متن کاملAbsence epilepsy and periventricular nodular heterotopia
We report a case of a girl who presented with typical absence seizures at age of 4.5 years. EEG showed absence seizures of sudden onset with 3 Hz spike-and-waves that also correlated with the clinical absences. The seizure semiology included subtle deviation of the eyes which prompted MRI investigation of the brain. This showed a periventricular nodular heterotopia in the mid to anterior horn o...
متن کاملAntenatal diagnosis of subependymal heterotopia.
Subependymal heterotopia consist of gray matter nodules along the lateral ventricular walls and are associated with epilepsy and other cerebral malformations. Some cases have an X-linked inheritance, and early antenatal diagnosis of affected fetuses is important for appropriate management. We present a case of heterotopia diagnosed by sonography and MR imaging at 23 weeks' gestation and discuss...
متن کاملPeriventricular nodular heterotopia: A challenge for epilepsy surgery
Pharmacoresistant focal epilepsies due to periventricular nodular heterotopia are a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge because of the need of invasive presurgical diagnostics and the selection of an optimal surgical approach. Invasive investigations in previous studies showed that focal epileptic activity can be correlated predominantly either with one of the nodular heterotopia or with neoco...
