Diagnosis and treatment of occipital brain lesions in children

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 67, Issue 11, Page 1409-1420, November 2025.
Occipital brain lesions in children represent a diagnostic challenge due to the large spectrum of etiologies and overlapping clinical features. This review analyses common and less common causes of occipital brain lesions in children, including malformative, vascular, genetic/metabolic, infectious, inflammatory, and neoplastic conditions.

Seizures and electroencephalographic findings in inborn errors of metabolism: Clues to differential diagnosis in the neonatal period, infancy, childhood and adolescence, and review of the literature

Epileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 5, Page 745-802, October 2025.
Abstract Although inborn errors of metabolism (IEM) are a rare cause of epilepsy, seizures are a common presentation in these disorders. Seizures in IEM are frequently refractory to conventional anti‐seizure medication and might warrant initiation of specific treatments based on vitamins or dietary modifications or provision of alternative substrates ...

Seminars in epileptology: How to diagnose status epilepticus in adults and children

Epileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 530-549, August 2025.
Abstract Status epilepticus (SE) can be regarded as the most severe expression of seizure activity characterized by a low probability of spontaneous cessation and mechanisms leading to metabolic and inflammatory derangements with increased risk of brain damage, alterations of neural networks, and potentially life‐threatening systemic complications ...

Nonepileptic-epilepsia partialis continua

Journal of Epilepsy, 1997
We report three patients with focal prolonged myoclonic jerking movements suggestive of epilepsia partialis continua (EPC) but produced on a psychogenic basis [nonepileptic seizures-EPS (NES-EPC)]. NES-EPC was identified by (1) variability in the areas of motor activity in the same patient, (2) distribution and spread of motor activity without ...

ILAE neuroimaging task force highlight: MRI detection of early life epilepsy caused by focal cortical dysplasia

Epileptic Disorders, Volume 27, Issue 4, Page 520-529, August 2025.
Abstract The ILAE Neuroimaging Task Force aims to publish educational case reports that highlight basic aspects of neuroimaging in epilepsy consistent with the ILAE's educational mission. Here, we describe a case series of three neonates with focal cortical dysplasia (FCD)‐related drug‐resistant epilepsy who underwent surgical intervention. The purpose

Longitudinal PET and MRI Evaluation in Late Onset Rasmussen Encephalitis: A Series of Three Cases

European Journal of Neurology, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2025.
ABSTRACT Background Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is a rare, chronic, neurological disorder characterized by progressive focal epilepsy and hemispheric atrophy. Late‐onset RE poses diagnostic challenges due to atypical clinical features and nonspecific early MRI findings.
