Scalp-recorded focal EEG seizure patterns are usually expressed as rhythmic metamorphic evolving patterns (with or without epileptiform morphology) that progress through two or more ictal phases into a postictal change. Such patterns are almost invariably seen in temporal complex partial seizures but less often detected in frontal complex partial seizures and least of all in simple partial seiz...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is recommended for patients with epileptic seizures to rule out an underlying focal lesion. However, the radiological characteristics of epilepsy are not well elucidated. Transient periictal MRI abnormality (TPMA) refers to reversible MRI signal changes observed in epileptic patients. A 32-year-old man presented with a 2-week history of epileptic seizures, which...
despite advances in antiviral therapy over the past 2 decades, herpes simplex encephalitis (hse) remains a serious illness with significant risk of morbidity and mortality. hse includes a range of clinical presentations, from aseptic meningitis and fever to a severe rapidly progressive form with mental status changes (clouding of consciousness, confusion, disorientation, personality changes) an...
Introduction: Epilepsy is a neurological disorder marked by sudden recurrent episodes of sensory disturbance, loss of consciousness, or convulsions, associated with abnormal electrical activity in the brain. Epileptic seizures are episodes that can vary from brief and nearly undetectable to long periods of vigorous shaking. These episodes can result in physical injuries to the patients. Aim: To...
OBJECTIVE SCN8A encodes the sodium channel voltage-gated α8-subunit (Nav1.6). SCN8A mutations have recently been associated with epilepsy and neurodevelopmental disorders. We aimed to delineate the phenotype associated with SCN8A mutations. METHODS We used high-throughput sequence analysis of the SCN8A gene in 683 patients with a range of epileptic encephalopathies. In addition, we ascertaine...
We studied clinical features of 131 patients with juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME). The prevalence was 7.7% among the epileptic patients registered. The mean age at onset was 13.37+/-4.93 years and the diagnosis was established at a mean age of 19.53+/-7.85 years. Absence seizures were reported by 27 (20.6%) patients, myoclonic jerks by 131 (100%) and generalized tonic-clonic seizures (GTCS) b...
Transient loss of consciousness associated with focal temporal lobe seizures is a complex phenomenon with life-threatening repercussions. In this issue of Neuron, Motelow et al. (2015) describe decreased cholinergic drive and suppressed subcortical arousal in seizures as a novel mechanism for impaired cortical function.
Seizures are common in children and 5% of all medical attendances to accident and emergency departments are related to seizures. The role of emergent neuroimaging for those children with first afebrile seizure is, however, not well-defined. We reviewed medical charts of 125 children who were admitted with a new-onset afebrile seizure to the Pediatric Ward of Rasool Akram Hospital and underwent ...
Genital and sexual manifestations represent rare clinical phenomena during or after focal seizures. The semiology of these types of automatisms is controversial. In particular, it is unclear whether temporal or frontal structures are involved in their generation and whether these clinical manifestations have a potential lateralizing value. In this view, from a population of 212 consecutive pati...
