Seizure Symptomatology in Infants with Localization-related Epilepsy

Abstract: The clinical characteristics of seizures in adults and children with localization-related epilepsy have been clearly described and classified, but few data are available based on video EEG studies of postneonatal infants under 2 years of age. We analyzed 125 videotaped seizures from 23 infants aged 2 to 24 months with localization-related epilepsy defined by localized ictal EEG or localized lesion on neuroimaging with seizure-free surgical outcome. Seizure symptomatology was classified based on observable beha… Show more

“…Nevertheless, they may first arise in other regions and then migrate there. 13,14 Because most NSs do not secondarily generalize, a single EEG channel has only a limited chance to detect them. Specifically, Fp 3 -Fp 4 was less likely to detect CEEG seizures arising in the central (C 3 or C 4 ) or temporal (T 3 or T 4 ) regions than the single C 3 -C 4 channel.…”

“…Como relataram Acharya et al 15 e Henkel et al 16 , identificar auras em crianças é uma importante informação para definir seu início localizado. 18 não encontraram descrição de auras em crianças abaixo de 3 anos de idade, estudando CE por video-EEG.…”

“…Na classificação de CE não convulsivas, as descrições de sete casos nos permitiram classificá-las como CE hipomotoras. Estas CE hipomotoras foram bem detalhadas por Acharya et al 15 que, através de video-EEG, confirmaram a descrição relatada pela mãe. Este dado da literatura nos faz acreditar na validade das observações feitas pelos P/R em nosso estudo.…”

“…Particularities of focal seizures in small children may be related more to age, and consequently to central nervous system maturity, than to specifi c localization 28 and probably there is immaturity of the inhibitory system of the central nervous system in younger children. 26 Association between schooling diffi culty and leftside injury was found.…”
