The Role Of Genetics In Febrile Convulsion Etiopathogenesis
Öz
|
Febrile seizures are the most common
seizures of childhood, occurring in 2 to 5 percent of children six months to
five years of age. Febrile seizures are classified into simple and complex.
Febrile seizure has a multifactorial inheritance, suggesting that both
genetic and environmental factors are causative. A positive family history of
febrile seizures, which can be elicited in %34 of the patients, is a definite
risk factor for both a first febrile seizure and recurrent febrile seizures.
Genetic abnormalities have been reported in patients with febrile epilepsy
syndromes, such as severe myoclonic epilepsy in infancy (Dravet Syndrome) and
generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus. Genetic epilepsy with
febrile seizures plus is a complex autosomal dominant disorder usually caused
by mutations in SCN1A (a voltage-gated sodium channel). Dravet syndrome is
one of the most intractable forms of epilepsy that begins in infancy. In
literature, there are also several reported genes in association with febrile
seizures. In this study, we aimed to review the
latest literature to emphasize the importance of genetic factors in the
etiopathogenesis of febrile seizures. |
