The ventrolateral medulla and medullary raphe in sudden unexpected death in epilepsy [PDF]

, 2018
Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is a leading cause of premature death in patients with epilepsy. One hypothesis proposes that sudden death is mediated by post-ictal central respiratory depression, which could relate to underlying pathology in
