In our study Gelastic seizures were revealed in 25 patients that comprised 1,98% of all epilepsy events with onset under 18 years of age (n=1261). Male patients prevailed in the group: 16 male patients (64.0%) against 9 female patients (36.0%). Symptomatic focal epilepsy was identified most frequently - in 80% of patients. Cryptogenic focal epilepsy (probably symptomatic focal epilepsy) was defined in 20% of cases. Epilepsy onset varied in a broad age interval: from the first day after birth till 16 years, 4.53+4.52 years on average. Most often (82%) onset was observed in the first years of life - from the first days of life till 6 years old. Clinical findings may disclose 12 different types of seizures. Most frequently were observed: focal motor seizures with typical automatisms - 64% of cases, secondarily generalized tonic-clonic seizures - 48% of cases and tonic seizures - in 32% of all cases. MRI changes: hypothalamic hamartoma - 32% of cases, temporal lobe atrophy - 12% of cases, DNET - 8% of cases, focal cortical dysplasia (insular-opercular region) - 4%, local bifrontal atrophy - 8%, Tuberous Sclerosis - 8% of cases, diffuse cerebral atrophy presented in the form of ventriculomegalia was diagnosed in 2 patients - 8% of cases. Remission was achieved only in 24% of cases. Whereas, in 12% of cases seizures were blocked only after surgical intervention. Reduction of seizures frequency &gt;50% was observed in 20% of patients. In 56% of cases AED therapy produced no significant effect.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p>Геластические приступы − фокальные эпилептические приступы, проявляющиеся внезапными эпизодами насильственного смеха. В нашем исследовании геластические приступы были выявлены у 25 пациентов, что составило 1,98% от всех случаев эпилепсии с дебютом приступов до 18 лет (n=1261). Отмечалось преобладание в группе пациентов мужского пола: 16 мужского пола (64,0%) против 9 женского (36,0%). Наиболее часто констатировалась симптоматическая фокальная эпилепсия, выявленная у 80% пациентов. Криптогенная фокальная эпилепсия отмечена в 20% случаев. Дебют эпилепсии варьировал в широком возрастном интервале: от первых суток жизни до 16 лет, в среднем 4,53+4,52 лет. В большинстве случаев (82%) дебют отмечался в первые годы жизни в интервале от первых суток жизни до шести лет. В клинической картине могут регистрироваться 12 различных типов приступов. Наиболее часто выявлялись: фокальные аутомоторные приступы − 64% случаев, вторично-генерализованные судорожные приступы − 48% случаев, тонические приступы констатировались в 32% случаев. Изменения на МРТ: гамартома гипоталамуса − 32% случаев, локальная атрофия височной доли − 12% случаев, ДНЭТ − 8% случаев, фокальная корковая дисплазия оперкулярноинсулярной зоны − 4%, очаговая бифронтальная атрофия − 8%, туберозный склероз − 8% случаев, диффузные атрофические изменения − 8% случаев. Ремиссия была достигнута лишь в 24% случаев. При этом в 12% случаев блокирование приступов стало возможным только после хирургического вмешательства. Снижение частоты приступов на 50% и более наблюдалосьу 20% пациентов. В 56% случаев отсутствовал значимый эффект на фоне АЭП.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>геластические приступы</kwd><kwd>приступы смеха</kwd><kwd>гамартома</kwd><kwd>туберозный склероз</kwd><kwd>ДНЭТ</kwd><kwd>эпилепсия</kwd><kwd>феномен вторичной билатеральной синхронизации</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>gelastic seizures</kwd><kwd>seizures of laughter</kwd><kwd>hamartoma</kwd><kwd>tuberous sclerosis</kwd><kwd>DNET</kwd><kwd>epilepsy</kwd><kwd>secondary bilateral synchrony</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Зенков Л.Р.
