عنوان انگلیسی Juvenile myoclonic epilepsy: Sporadic and familial cases. Do they differ?
چکیده انگلیسی مقاله Introduction: Genetic factors are the only identified cause of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy but some of the cases do not have affected first degree relatives. In this study we wanted to know whether subjects with sporadic and familial JME differ in terms of clinical characteristics and response to treatments. Differences would support the hypothesis of a different etiology for sporadic cases. Methods: We analyzed 70 patients with JME, diagnosed on clinical and EEG criteria. All patients and their first degree relatives were interviewed. Patients with first degree relatives affected with epileptic seizures were regarded as familial and the others were regarded as sporadic. Results: 34.3% of the patients had familial epilepsy. The types of the seizures, age at the onset of the seizures, response to treatment and side effects of the drugs did not differ between familial and sporadic cases. Conclusions: No difference was found between familial and sporadic JME patients. This doesn’t support the hypothesis that sporadic and familial JME cases have separate etiologies.
