Utility of repeat stereotactic EEG in pediatric patients with tuberous sclerosis

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a rare genetic disorder associated with early‐onset drug‐resistant epilepsy (DRE) secondary to intracranial tubers. Many patients undergo stereo‐EEG (sEEG) for seizure onset localization, sometimes requiring multiple sEEGs and subsequent epilepsy surgeries. Our objective was to evaluate the effects

Saccular abdominal aortic aneurysm in adolescence with tuberous sclerosis

Clinical Case Reports
Key clinical message Abdominal aortic aneurysm complicated by tuberous sclerosis is rare, particularly in patients over the age of 10. It is important to screen for abdominal aortic aneurysm in adolescents diagnosed with tuberous sclerosis regularly ...

Complete lesion resection and early surgical intervention are favorable factors for long‐term seizure freedom in drug‐resistant epileptic spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epileptic spasms (ES) in children carry a high risk of neurodevelopmental delay, yet predictors of long‐term surgical outcome remain incompletely defined. This study aimed to evaluate seizure outcomes following epilepsy surgery and to identify independent prognostic factors for postoperative recurrence.

Management of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome: A survey of US pediatric hospitals

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the management practices of Infantile Epileptic Spasms Syndrome (IESS) across tertiary pediatric hospitals in the United States using a survey‐based approach. Methods A 21‐question survey focused on management setting, work‐up, follow‐up and treatment was created and sent to 45 member institutions of the Pediatric ...

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Phenotype‐guided etiologic workup in a prospective cohort of 144 adults with developmental and epileptic encephalopathy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Adults with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) often enter adult neurology care without etiologic clarification because of incomplete transition from pediatric services, outdated investigations, and attenuation of childhood electro‐clinical features over time.

Astrocyte subtype‐specific alterations in the dentate gyrus of individuals with mesial temporal lobe epilepsy

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy affects approximately 50 million people worldwide and, although primarily attributed to neuronal dysfunction, increasing evidence highlights a critical role of glial cells, particularly astrocytes, in the pathophysiological mechanisms.

Impact of vigabatrin on risk of relapse of infantile spasms

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Vigabatrin is an effective treatment for infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS), but relapse remains a clinical challenge. The ideal dose and duration of treatment after response are unknown. We set out to identify treatment‐related predictors of IESS relapse after initial vigabatrin response. Methods We conducted a retrospective

Unraveling the function of TSC1-TSC2 complex: implications for stem cell fate

Stem Cell Research & Therapy
Background Tuberous sclerosis complex is a genetic disorder caused by mutations in the TSC1 or TSC2 genes, affecting multiple systems. These genes produce proteins that regulate mTORC1 activity, essential for cell function and metabolism.
