EPILEPSY MANIFESTATIONS IN PATIENTS WITH MALFORMATIONS OF THE CORPUS CALLOSUM
Abstract
The article deals with epileptic manifestations with malformations of the corpus callosum of the example of two disembriogenetic syndromes (Aicardi syndrome and Pierre-Robin syndrome). These hereditary syndromes have in common is expressed epileptic manifestations, malformations of the corpus callosum and other somatic congenital abnormality. The treatment is mainly symptomatic. Unlike most other neurogenetic syndromes with known molecular defect, DNA testing at Aicardi syndrome and Pierre-Robin syndrome is very difficult task, and the focus of the diagnosis of the disease belongs to the complex clinical and neuroimaging studies. Timely detection of these syndromes is a difficult task that requires a great deal of clinical experience, practical knowledge, not only in neuroscience but also in the related fields of medicine.
