Cortical involvement in focal epilepsies with epileptic spasms

Epilepsy Research, 2014
The pathophysiological mechanisms of epileptic spasms are still poorly understood. The role of subcortical structures has been suggested on the basis of non-localized EEG features and from experimental data. The description of asymmetric spasms associated with lateralized EEG patterns has challenged this view and raises the possibility of a cortical ...

Diurnal and sleep/wake patterns of epileptic spasms in different age groups [PDF]

Epilepsia, 2012
PURPOSE: Epileptic spasms are seizures that occur predominantly in children and are characterized by clusters of brief axial movements. Epileptic spasms may occur in the context of a variety of syndromes. Previous research has found that epileptic spasms

Felbamate in the treatment of refractory epileptic spasms

Epilepsy Research, 2020
Several small case series provide conflicting impressions of the efficacy of felbamate for treatment of epileptic spasms. Using a large single-center cohort of children with epileptic spasms, we retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and safety of felbamate.

Epileptic spasms in tuberous sclerosis complex

Epilepsy Research, 2013
To characterize epileptic spasms (ES) occurring after the age of two years in patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), particularly treatment response to vigabatrin (VGB), which is extremely effective for infantile spasms (IS) in TSC.The authors retrospectively reviewed 19 patients with TSC and ES.

Clinical spectrum of epileptic spasms in children

Brain and Development, 2015
To compare etiologic, semiologic, and electrographic features of epileptic spasms (ES) in children with West syndrome (WS) vs. in children with other epilepsy syndromes and nonsyndromic epilepsies.The 24h-video/EEG recordings of consecutive children with ES were reviewed for etiology, ictal semiology, and interictal and ictal EEG features.

Extent of EEG monitoring for detecting epileptic spasms

Seizure, 2022
Epileptic spasms (ES) are the ictal manifestation of West syndrome. Due to poor interrater reliability in diagnosing hypsarrhythmia, identification of ES - ideally on video EEG monitoring - is important to start proper treatment.We retrospectively analyzed inpatient video EEG recordings of 42 patients with new onset ES and calculated the time needed to

Cingulate Lesions Presenting With Epileptic Spasms

Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2009
To describe the novel finding of epileptic spasms arising from a cingulate lesion.We describe two children presenting with epileptic spasms who had lesions of the cingulate gyrus on MRI.In both patients, the lesions involved the midcingulate cortex. Seizures were characterized by prominent motor manifestations and resembled spasms.

Atonic elements combined or uncombined with epileptic spasms in infantile spasms

Clinical Neurophysiology, 2017
To study the atonic elements combined or uncombined with epileptic spasms in infantile spasms.The demographic data, clinical characteristics, electroencephalogram (EEG), and polyelectromyography (PEMG) features were analyzed in 12 infantile spasm patients with atonic elements.A total of 29 EEGs were recorded.
