Neuroimaging Findings in Rasmussen's Syndrome
Journal of Neuroimaging, 1997AbstractRasmussen's syndrome is a progressive childhood disease of unknown cause characterized by severe epilepsy, hemiparesis, mental deterioration, inflammation of one cerebral hemisphere, and brain atrophy. Computed tomography, single‐photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), and magnetic resonance (MR) neuroimaging findings of 8 patients with ...

Functional neuroimaging in Rasmussen syndrome
Epilepsy Research, 2018For a diagnosis of Rasmussen syndrome (RS), clinical course together with electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings are considered important, but there are few reports on functional neuroimaging. This study investigated cerebral blood flow (CBF)-single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), central benzodiazepine ...

Electrophysiological findings in Rasmussen's syndrome
Epileptic Disorders, 2016AbstractBackground. Rasmussen syndrome is a rare, inflammatory and probably autoimmune disease presenting with epilepsia partialis continua which is generally in the form of myoclonic jerks and involves the upper extremities with or without head involvement.

Current Opinion in Neurology, 1996
Subacute focal encephalitis of Rasmussen involves cortical inflammatory infiltration which may on occasion be bilateral. The presence of anti-Glu R3 antibodies in some patients suggests that an autoimmune process may be involved. Although a small number of patients respond transiently to immunoglobulins and the condition of some is partially improved ...

Orvosi hetilap, 1994
Authors report about a boy with Rasmussen syndrome. This is a chronic localised encephalitis with focal epileptic seizures causing progressive neurologic deficits and mental impairment. The etiology and the clinical features of the syndrome are discussed, and the diagnostic role of the new imaging modalities is emphasized.

Treatment of Rasmussen's syndrome with ganciclovir
Neurology, 1996Since cytomegalovirus (CMV) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Rasmussen's syndrome, we treated four patients with ganciclovir, a potent anti-CMV drug. A 7-year-old girl with seizures escalating to 60/day over 3 months despite triple antiepileptic drug therapy became seizure-free 5 days after initiation of treatment with no recurrence at 1.5 ...

Rasmussen’s syndrome is a childhood developing syndrome, usually characterized by refractory focal motor seizures (epilepsia partialis continua). Most cases originate between the age of 1 and 10 years, mean age about 5 years. Symptoms are attributed to chronic pathogen-free inflammation of both gray and white matter.

Chronic encephalitis (rasmussen's syndrome) and ipsilateral uveitis
Annals of Neurology, 1992AbstractTwo children are reported with acute uveitis during the early progressive phase of chronic encephalitis (Rasmussen's syndrome). In both children, the side of the uveitis was ipsilateral to the side of cerebral inflammation, although in 1 child there were milder inflammatory changes in the contralateral eye.

Rasmussen's syndrome: pathogenetic theories and therapeutic strategies
Journal of Neurology, 1995A syndrome of chronic partial epileptic seizures attended by progressive focal sensorimotor neurological deficit and cognitive decline, and with neuropathological features of a localized chronic encephalitis, was first defined by Rasmussen and his colleagues in 1958 [1].
