Unprovoked Seizures After Complex Febrile Convulsions
Brain and Development, 2000Children with complex febrile convulsions bear a higher risk of developing epilepsy than children with simple febrile convulsions. Complex febrile convulsions are defined by the presence of prolonged seizures, partial seizures and multiple seizures occurring during the same day. The aim of this study is to delineate the relative significance of each of

Febrile seizures in patients with complex partial seizures
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009Febrile seizures occurred in 14 of 155 (9%) out-patients with complex partial seizures. Twelve patients had prolonged or recurrent febrile seizures, convulsive status epilepticus or a transient postictal neurological deficit. Febrile seizures were associated with perinatal abnormalities, an earlier onset of epilepsy and with a poor seizure control ...

Influenza A as a Common Viral Cause of Complex Febrile Seizures
Journal of Pediatric Infectious Diseases, 2021AbstractObjective The most common childhood convulsive disorder happens to be febrile seizure (FS), which is an important health problem leading to economic burden and parental anxiety.

Complex Febrile Seizures: Usual and the Unusual
Indian Journal of PediatricsFebrile seizures account for 2 to 14% of all childhood seizures, and one-third of febrile seizures are complex febrile seizures. Despite this, there is a lack of clinical equipoise in the diagnosis and management of complex febrile seizures and this results in significant practice variability amongst physicians.

The Value of Early Postictal EEG in Children With Complex Febrile Seizures [PDF]
Epilepsia, 2000 Summary: Purpose: To assess the usefulness of an early post‐ictal EEG in neurologically normal children with complex febrile seizures. Methods: We conducted a retrospective chart review of all neurologically normal children who were hospitalized over a period of 2.5 years after complex febrile seizures, and had an EEG up to 1 week after the seizure ...

Risk factors for acute encephalitis and early seizure recurrence in complex febrile seizures
European Journal of Pediatrics, 2022The purpose of this study is to elucidate risk factors for central nervous system infection and early seizure recurrence in children with febrile seizures (FSs) and thus facilitate outpatient management of complex FS. This single-center, retrospective cohort study investigated 688 children (6-60 months old) with FSs in Japan during 2011-2021.

Classification of Complex Features of Febrile Seizures: Interrater Agreement
Epilepsia, 1992Summary: As part of a prospective study of febrile seizures, three independent pediatric neurologists rated each of 100 febrile seizures for the presence of complex features: focality, long duration (≥10 min), and occurrence of multiple seizures.

Children With Complex Febrile Seizures: Is Hospital Admission Necessary?
Clinical Pediatrics, 2021Children with complex febrile seizure (CFS) are often hospitalized for concerns for serious bacterial infection (SBI) or seizure recurrence. We describe the yield of diagnostic studies and seizure recurrence during hospitalization in CFS children. We performed a retrospective review of 372 visits in 350 developmentally normal children aged 6 to 60 ...

Development of hippocampal sclerosis after a complex febrile seizure
European Journal of Pediatrics, 2008The role of prolonged febrile seizures in the genesis of hippocampal sclerosis is controversial; statistical analysis and data from epilepsy surgery suggest a causal relationship. A three-year-old boy had an initial febrile seizure with a transient postictal flaccid hemiparesis.
