Abstract:-Inborn metabolic errors (IME) and cortical developmental malformations are uncommon etiologies of neonatal seizures, however they may represent treatable causes of refractory epilepsy and for this reason must be considered as possible etiological factors. This case report aims to demonstrate the importance of neuroimaging studies in one patient with neonatal seizures, even when there are clues pointing to a metabolic disorder. Case report: A previously healthy 14 day-old child started presenting reiterated fo… Show more
“…It is important to remember that isolated germinal matrix hemorrhage is unlikely to produce seizures. Cerebral artery infarction could be suspected in infants with seizures, in whom Apgar score is normal and subsequent investigation failed to discover an infective or metabolic etiology (11,12).…”

Lateralized FST were found mostly during quiet sleep. FST asynchronous in healthy full term newborns were normal and depended of FST density. FST unilateral appearance should not necessarily be considered abnormal as well.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
