ILAE senaste definition
An epileptic seizure is a transient occurrence of signs and/or symptoms due to abnormal excessive or synchronous neuronal activity in the brain.
Epilepsy is a disorder of the brain characterized by an enduring predisposition to generate epileptic seizures, and by the neurobiologic, cognitive, psychological, and social consequences of this condition. The definition of epilepsy requires the occurrence of at least one epileptic seizure.
Epilepsy is a disease of the brain defined by any of the following conditions
1. At least two unprovoked (or reflex) seizures occurring >24 h apart
2. One unprovoked (or reflex) seizure and a probability of further seizures similar to the general recurrence risk (at least 60%) after two unprovoked seizures, occurring over the next 10 years
3. Diagnosis of an epilepsy syndrome
Epilepsy is considered to be resolved for individuals who had an age-dependent epilepsy syndrome but are now past the applicable age or those who have remained seizure-free for the last 10 years, with no seizure medicines for the last 5 years.
Fallgropar vid epilepsi diagnostik
2-4 % av alla friska barn har epileptiforma förändringar på EEG.
EEGs sensitivitet 25 - 50 - 80%
Epilepsi - migränlikheter och skillnader
Comorbiditet; Individer med epilepsi har migrän dubbelt så ofta som de utan epilepsi och individer med migrän har epilepsi tre gånger så ofta som de med spänningshuvudvärk.
Occipital epilepsi och migrän kan vara mycket svåra att skilja åt - migralepsi.
Migränliknande huvudvärk efter anfall ( fr.a. efter tonsik kliniska samt temporallobs utösta )
Trigger faktorer
Familjär hemiplegisk epilepsi. CACNA1A - Ca kanal ATP1A2 - Na - K ATPas SCN1A - Na kanal
Jonkanals sjuka? Arytmier, episodisk paralys, dyskinesier.
AED kan hjälpa vid båda tillstånd. Men de som verkar via spännings känsliga Na kanaler och via GABA systemet gör det inte.Dessutom är upp till 30% av både migrän och epilepsi patienter läkemedels resistenta - andra mekanismer?
Epilepsi synkrona urladdningar - spreading depression vid migrän.
Migrän
Cortical spreading depression Aristide Leao 1944.
Initial neuronal exitation under ett par sekunder som följs av en 5 - 10 minuter lång period med negativ laddning över cortex området, som sprider sig med en hastighet av 3 - 5 mm.
CSD tros orsaka migrän auran och huvudvärken
Gemensamt för både migrän och epilepsi tros den glutamat utlösta hypersynkroniseringen vara.
Benign barnepilepsi med centrotemporala spikarBRE ( BenignRolandicEpilepsy )
BECTS ( BenignEpilepsywithCentraTemporalSpikes )

Drabbar barn mellan ( 1 ) 3- 13 ( 14 ) år ( peak 7 - 10 )
Normal utvecklade, ingen avvikande neurologi, ev lättare språkliga och inlärnings problem som sannolikt försvinner.
EEG visar fokal ep - aktivitet, klassiskt centro - temporalt, sidoväxlande med markant ökad mängd i sömn. Bakgrundsaktiviteten är normal.
BRE, fortsättning
De flesta anfall är under sömn / uppvaknadet
Ofta partiella anfall men över 50% får GTCS.
De flesta är friska efter 3 år.
Över 90 % fortsätter att vara anfalls fria i 10 år eller längre.
Aktiv expektans alternativt behandling med oxkarbamazepin eller valproat.
BRE - del av fenotypiskt spektrum
BRE är ” idiopatisk” = genetisk
Gener associerade med BRE finns beskrivna
Ett fåtal med BRE utvecklar svårare epilepsier:
Atypisk benign fokal epilepsi
Pseudo Lennox
Landau - Kleffner 3- 7 år. Plötslig afasi, verbal agnosi, BECT likände EEG med ESES ( Electrical Status epilepticus during Slow wave Sleep )
CSWS , tiltagande kognitiv och motorisk försämring, sällan anfall, EEG i vakenhet ofta normal mesans ESES bild ( se nästa slide ) under sömn.
Absence epilepsiChildhood Absence Epilepsy ( CAE )
Film 1
Film 2
Absence epilepsi fortsättning
Debuterar 4 - 10 års åldern peak 5 - 7 ( senare debut betyder sannolikt juvenil absence epilepsi med risk för GTCS och tillägg med myoklonier för juvenil myoklon epilepsi där man, . GTCS, där man mera sällan ser remission ).
klassisk 3 Hz / sekund ( 2-4 )
Anfallen typiskt 4 - 20 sekunder långa, myoklonier, atonier, tonaska komponenter, automatismer
CAE förutsätter intakta kortikothalamiska banor.
Ethosuxemide bäst ( skyddar inte mot GTCS ) , valproat, lamotrigin( Ox ) karbamazepin, gabapentin, vigabatrin och tigabin är kontraindicerade.
Infantil spasm
Barn under 2 år, peak 3-5 månaders ålder
Cerebral pares, tubers skleros , migrations störningar och Downs syndromepredisponerar.
100tals anfall dagligen, ” Salaam” anfall, ofta följt av skrik och ledsenhet.
Infantil spasm fortsättning
Behandlas på SUS med ACTH i.m. ( ett par veckor )+ Vigabatrin ( 6 månader )Risk för sepsis och hypertension ( ACTH ) samt synfälts defekt ( Vigabatrin )
Stor risk för negativ kognitiv påverkan på sikt - 80%
Non konvulsivt status epileptikus
Partiellt status epileptikus
Är Epilepsi farligt?
Non konvulsion anfall verkar inte ge skador.
Feberkramper hos barn ger ingen negativ kognitiv påverkan på sikt.
Meldrum visade på 1970-talet att konvulsiva status > 45 minuter hos babianer gav hjärn skador.
Mortaliteten hos barn med konvulsivt status är 2,7 - 5,4 %( 5 - 8 % hos de som kräver IVA vård ).
Mortaliteten hos epilepsi patienter är 0,44 / 1000 / år.
Är epilepsi farligt ? Fortsättning
Den relativa risken att skada sig är 1.4
2 % hade fått hjärnskakning
0,2 % av 44000 dödsfall i trafikolyckor i USA bedömdes vara orsakade av epilepsianfall.
14 % uppgav sig ha haft ett anfall under bad.
Long term mortality in childhood onsetepilepsy
Sillanpää NEJM 2010
Inga fall av SUDEP < 14 års ålder.
Barn dog fr.a. p.g.a av andra tillstånd relaterade till grundsjukdomen än epilepsi.
Under 40 års uppföljningen dog 24% vilket är tre gånger mer än normal befolkningen.
Hur länge kan man expektera?
90 % av anfallen upphör inom 2 minuter.
När ett anfall varat 5 minuter och definitivt efter 10 minuter, bryts det sällan spontant.
Risken för fler anfall än ett?
90 % av alla recidiv är inom ett år.
Dutch study group on childhood epilepsy:25 % är friska efter 1 år.50% var anfalls fria år 2; 5 och 15.25 % har epilepsi längre än 12 år.9 % hade terapi resistent epilepsiAv de med till synes glatt förlopp = anfalls fria under de 5 första åren eller enbart recidiv under de första 6 månader efter första anfallet:Av dessa recidiverade 17 % efter long remission och hälften utveckladeterapi resistent epilepsi.
Risk faktorer var : Låg ålder, patologiskt eeg, avvikande neurolog status och eventuellt anfall under sömn.
Idiopatisk epilepsi ger bäst prognos.
Kan man låta barnet sova själv?
Risken för SUDEP är mycket liten.
De flesta anfall slutar inom 2 minuter.
Monitorer har en dålig sensitivitet och specificitet.
Risken att skada sig när man ligger till sängs är lägre.
Däremot…
Inte bada utan särskild tillsyn - även i skolan.
Vid diagnos epilepsi gäller ett års körförbud för moped, traktor och bil.

Ålder
is characterized by progressive motor losses and dysfunc-tion. Motor symptoms characteristically occur early andare more prominent than seizures and mental deteriora-tion. A frequent early problem is a gait disorder with un-steadiness. Within months, this leads to the loss of theability to walk and stand. Decrease in deep tendon reflexesoccurs in the early stage, as the peripheral neuropathyworsens and is later replaced by hyperreflexia. Bilateralextensor toe responses occur early and persist. Speech de-teriorates as a result of dysarthria and aphasia. Ataxia andtruncal instability become obvious. Intermittent pain is amanifestation of peripheral neuropathy. Nystagmus ispresent. Optic atrophy and a grayish discoloration of themacula are occasionally observed. Hypotonia is progres-sively replaced by rigidity and spasticity. Megalencephalyis frequently noted. Most children are bedridden by age 3years. All meaningful contact with the surroundings is pro-gressively lost. An opisthotonic posture with flexion of thearms, equinovarus posture, and scissoring of the legs ispresent in later stages of the illness and may last for a fewmonths to several years.
The juvenile form has its onset between age 4 and10 years. The majority of cases develop during the firstyears of school with bradykinesia and poor school per-formance. Daydreaming, confusion, or emotional labilitymay be seen early. Unsteadiness of gait, usually owing topyramidal system involvement, may occur. Extrapyrami-dal dysfunction, as suggested by postural abnormalities,rigidity, and tremor may also develop. Seizures occur in
more than half of the patients. Deep tendon reflexes areusually increased. The rate of deterioration is usuallyslower and more variable than in the late-infantile form.Patients may not be bedridden until 5–50 years aftersymptoms begin.
The adult form has its onset any time after puberty.Initial symptoms consist of personality and mentalchanges. Such symptoms are often misdiagnosed as atten-tion deficit disorder, schizophrenia, or manic-depressiveillness. Seizures are rarely the presenting symptom. Move-ment disorders, ataxia, and paresis appear later. There areusually no clinical signs of peripheral neuropathy. In thefinal stage, the patient is mute, blind, bedridden, andunresponsive.
A rare variant of MLD combines features of the mu-copolysaccharidosis with X-linked ichthyosis, X-linkedchondrodysplasia punctata, and those of MLD. It is nowcalled multiple sulfatase deficiency. The mucopolysac-charidosis-like features include a mild gargoylism (facialchanges with depressed bridge of the nose), hydro-cephalus, growth retardation, limitation in extension ofthe elbows, radiologic changes of chondrodysplasia punc-tata, hepatosplenomegaly, heart defects, and deafness.Corneal opacities do not occur. Ichthyosis, when present,develops at an early age. In general, presymptomatic de-velopment is less advanced than that of late-infantilemetachromatic leukodystrophy. Most children neverachieve normal gait or speech. Neurologic regression fol-lows the pattern of late-infantile MLD. By the age of 5,

Pearls and Perils
! Detection of large amounts of urinary sulfatides is essentialfor diagnosis. Urine should be kept at 4°C for collection.
! Low arylsulfatase-A in asymptomatic persons may beseen in two situations. Presymptomatic cases ofmetachromatic leukodystrophy excrete excessiveamounts of urinary sulfatide. Normal amounts of sul-fatide are found in pseudoarylsulfatase-A deficiency.
! Arylsulfatase-A is not always low in metachromaticleukodystrophy. Assay of arylsulfatase-A in intact cellsand detection of large amounts of sulfatide in the urineallow diagnosis of saposin B deficiency.
! Arylsulfatase-A deficiency is deficient in multiple sulfatase deficiency, a rare autosomal recessivemetachromatic leukodystrophy associated with combined features of mucopolysaccharidoses, X-linkedichthyosis, and X-linked chondrodysplasia punctata.
! CT scan and MRI of the head typically demonstrate mildenlargement of the ventricles and demyelination bilaterally, with the maximum at the anterior and posterior poles of the ventricles.

! Is the hypotonia due to a central or peripheral process?! Does hypotonia improve with stimulation?! Are reflexes normal or diminished?! Is motor development improving, static, or worsening?! Is the pattern of weakness predominantly proximal or
distal?! Is there evidence of associated sensory loss?! Does weakness and sensory loss conform to a length
dependent pattern of severity?! Is diminished sensation predominantly related to
dysfunction of myelinated or unmyelinated axons?! Is motor dysfunction due to weakness or pain?! Is internal or external ophthalmoplegia present?! Do symptoms fluctuate in the course of the day, during
the week, over several months, or at all?! Is ataxia sensory or cerebellar?

These disorders may have predominant white matter involvement (central and/or peripheral demylination) or gray matter involvement (neuronal loss or dysfunction). Important differentiating features between the two groups are summarized in Table 3. Although clinically useful, this distinction is somewhat arbitrary as many NDD have a mixed white and gray matter involvement particularly in the later stages of the disease, i.e. secondary demylination following progressive neuronal loss and secondary neuronal loss following progressive demylination. As well, classification schemes are changing with the recent advances at the molecular and cellular levels. Most NDD are now regrouped under specific disease categories according to the defected cellular component. Examples include Peroxisomal disorders (Adrenoleukodystrophy, Zellweger syndrome, Refsum disease), Lysosomal disorders (Krabbe leukodystrophy, Metachromatic leukodystrophy), and Mitochondrial disorders (MELAS, Kearns-Sayre syndrome). However, the distinction between predominantly gray an white matter NDD remain clinically useful in narrowing the differential diagnosis list, examining for associated and complicating features, and guiding the initial laboratory investigations (Table 3).
