Abstract

Giriş: Bazı epilepsi hastalarında gözlemlenen göz kapama sensitivitesi, epileptik sendromunun prognozuyla ilişkili olabilir.

Hastalar ve yöntem: Göz kapama sensitivitesi bulunan yedi hastan􀃖n epileptik sendrom tanısı ve prognozla ilişkisi incelenmiştir.

Bulgular: Göz kapama sensitivitesi bulunan yedi hastamızn beşinde juvenil myoklonik epilepsi, birinde juvenil absans epilepsisi ve birinde absanslı göz kapağı myoklonisi tanıları kondu. Altı hasta düşük doz valproik asitle ve bir hasta da klonazepamla nöbet geçirmemekteydi.

Sonuç: Göz kapama sensitivitesi, juvenil myoklonik epilepsi, juvenil absans epilepsisi ve absanslı göz kapağı myoklonisi gibi idiyopatik jeneralize epilepsili hastalarda iyi prognoz göstergesi olabilir.

Epileptik Sendromlarda Göz Kapama Sensitivitesi ve Prognozla İlișkisi

Abstract

Aim: Eye-closure sensitivity may be observed in some patients with epilepsy and correlated to the prognosis of the epilepsy syndromes.

Patients and methods: The cases of seven patients with epilepsy demonstrating eye-closure sensitivity were reviewed for the diagnosis of the epilepsy syndromes and for the association with prognosis.

Results: All patients with eye-closure sensitivity had idiopathic generalized epilepsy, as juvenile myoclonic epilepsy in five patients, juvenile absence epilepsy in one patient and eyelid myoclonia with absences in another one. Six patients were seizure-free with low doses of valproate, and one patient with clonazepam treatment.

Conclusion: Eye-closure sensitivity may be correlated with good prognosis in patients with idiopathic generalized epilepsy like juvenile myoclonic epilepsy, juvenile absence epilepsy and eyelid myoclonia with absences.
