full textOrigin of frontal lobe spikes in the early onset benign occipital lobe epilepsy (Panayiotopoulos syndrome).
OBJECTIVE Early onset benign occipital lobe epilepsy (Panayiotopoulos syndrome [PS]) is a common and easily recognizable epilepsy. Interictal EEG spike activity is often multifocal but most frequently localized in the occipital lobes. The origin and clinical significance of the extra-occipital spikes remain poorly understood. METHODS Three patients with the PS and interictal EEG spikes with f...

Introduction: Hyperreactio Luteinalis (HL) is a rare benign condition in pregnancy which is characterized by bilaterally multicystic ovarian enlargement containing theca lutein cysts caused by increased production of hCG. HL is mostly associated with hydatidiform mole and multiple pregnancies. Correspondence: Azin Alavi, ...
full textBrain mapping of epileptic activity in a case of idiopathic occipital lobe epilepsy (Panayiotopoulos syndrome).
The Panayiotopoulos type of occipital lobe epilepsy has generated great interest, but the particular brain areas involved in the peculiar seizure manifestations have not been established. We studied a patient with the syndrome, using high-resolution EEG and simultaneous EEG and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Resolution of the scalp EEG was improved using a realistic spline Laplac...
full textEarly Onset of Fragile X Associated Tremor and Ataxia Syndrome: A Case Report from Iran
Background: Different alleles of Fragile X Mental Retardation1 (FMR1) gene with separate molecular etiologies cause Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) and Fragile X-associated Tremor and Ataxia Syndrome (FXTAS). Premutation alleles with 55 to 200 repeats in the FMR1 gene lead to FXTAS. It is carried by 1 in 209 women and 1 in 430 men. FXTAS commonly appears in 50- to 70-year-old adults. Case Presentatio...

Radiation induced sarcoma is a rare but recognized complication of radiotherapy and is associated with poor prognosis, frequently occurs 5 years after completion of treatment. We report radiation-induced sarcoma in a 42 years old male, involving the left parietooccipital scalp region following treatment of brain tumor with craniotomy and post-operative radiation with 60Co machine. Diagnosis of ...
