Seizures10
- Such neonatal seizures can be considered acute reactive (acute symptomatic), and therefore the term neonatal epilepsy is not used to describe neonatal seizures. (medscape.com)
- Epilepsy with focal seizures only was seen in 13 patients and West syndrome in 12 patients, preceded by focal symptomatic epilepsies in six. (thieme-connect.de)
- One patient had epilepsy with myoclonic-astatic seizures and another multifocal spikes associated with epileptic spasms in clusters. (thieme-connect.de)
- Our epilepsy program is known nationally for advanced diagnostic tools and treatments, helping our patients find relief from frequent and debilitating seizures. (swedish.org)
- Canine epilepsy in GSDs simply refers to repeated seizures. (total-german-shepherd.com)
- Canine epilepsy in GSDs is a chronic condition characterized by recurrent seizures. (total-german-shepherd.com)
- There are so many different causes of chronic recurrent seizures in German Shepherds that canine epilepsy is not even considered a specific disease or even a single syndrome, but rather a broad and diverse category of disorders. (total-german-shepherd.com)
- Many other problems such as fainting or dizzy spells can also come and go like seizures and may look similar to canine epilepsy to the untrained eye. (total-german-shepherd.com)
- Epilepsy is a neurological disorder in which brain activity becomes abnormal, causing seizures or periods of unusual behavior, sensations and sometimes loss of awareness. (floridahealth.gov)
- The International League Against Epilepsy's (ILAE) revised classification and terminology of seizures and epilepsies, published in 2010, designates West syndrome as an electroclinical syndrome with onset in infancy, and epileptic spasms as a type of seizure. (medscape.com)
Normal Pressure Hydr1
- Bipolar disorder has been associated with some brain diseases like multiple sclerosis , epilepsy , Huntington's (if it occurs in someone whose symptoms have started somewhat later in life), and, though relatively rare, normal-pressure hydrocephalus . (medscape.com)
Surgery2
- with some involvement in paediatric and adult trauma and adult epilepsy and endoscopic surgery. (bepress.com)
- One of the twins had hydrocephalus requiring surgery. (bvsalud.org)
Symptomatic2
- Epilepsy in GSDs is broadly divided into 2 distinct and different types - idiopathic and symptomatic. (total-german-shepherd.com)

Disorders1
- Mercy Hospitals offers Kern County access to quality treatment for stroke and injuries to the brain or spine and neurological disorders such as epilepsy and others. (dignityhealth.org)
Obstructive Hydrocephalus1
- In 38 patients (64%), obstructive hydrocephalus was present. (thejns.org)
Neurosurgery2
- After a Neurosurgery residency in Lausanne (Switzerland), she completed an epilepsy fellowship in the Fondation Rothschild in Paris (France), then a paediatric neurosurgery fellowship in the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto. (bepress.com)
- A few reasons to have this type of neurosurgery are to treat hydrocephalus, there is too much fluid is being produced, the blood vessels are not working properly, or there is a blockage in the way that prevents the fluids from flowing properly. (summahealth.org)
Refractory Epilepsy1
- Refractory Epilepsy. (ossweb.com)
Encephalitis1
- The control brain tomography showed persistent ventriculomegaly and cerebral edema, which led to RG, Caltagirome R, Blanco the diagnosis of encephalitis of viral etiology complicated by epilepsy secondary to a demyelinating structural lesion of Pimiento EC, et al. (bvsalud.org)
Syndrome3
- West syndrome is a severe epilepsy syndrome composed of the triad of infantile spasms, an interictal electroencephalogram ( EEG ) pattern termed hypsarrhythmia, and mental retardation. (medscape.com)
- The term infantile spasm has been used to describe the seizure type, the epilepsy syndrome, or both. (medscape.com)
- West syndrome is a severe epilepsy syndrome composed of the triad of infantile spasms, an interictal electroencephalogram ( EEG ) pattern termed hypsarrhythmia, and mental retardation, although the diagnosis can be made even if 1 of the 3 elements is missing (according to the international classification).

Epileptic2
- We present 67 patients with early-onset shunted hydrocephalus and epilepsy, focusing on the prevalence of epileptic syndromes. (thieme-connect.de)
- Focal epilepsy and epileptic encephalopathies were the most frequent syndromes. (thieme-connect.de)
Seizure3
- Most German Shepherds with the idiopathic form of epilepsy suffer their first seizure between the ages of one and five years of age. (total-german-shepherd.com)
- Once a seizure has occurred it is important to bring your dog to a veterinarian as soon as possible, and they will be able to treat the immediate situation and advise on on-going management of the epilepsy (if that is deemed to be the cause of the seizure). (petinsurancereview.com)
- The UCLA Epilepsy Program has been a world leader in the surgical treatment of intractable seizure for over 30 years. (uclahealth.org)
Cranial1
- Her special areas of expertise are in cranial endoscopy (which is usually related to the treatment of complex hydrocephalus). (cappskids.org)
Fluid3
- Hydrocephalus is an accumulation of extra fluid in the normal spaces within the brain (ventricles) and/or between the inner and middle layers of tissues that cover the brain (the subarachnoid space). (msdmanuals.com)
- Hydrocephalus occurs when the fluid in the normal spaces in the brain (ventricles) cannot drain. (msdmanuals.com)
- When the fluid cannot drain, it accumulates in the ventricles and/or subarachnoid space, causing hydrocephalus (water on the brain). (msdmanuals.com)
Cortical1
- Hemorrhage, infections, and cortical dysplasia were associated with a higher prevalence of epilepsy. (thieme-connect.de)
Several breeds1
- A genetic basis for idiopathic epilepsy is strongly suspected in several breeds beside the German Shepherd - including the Beagle, Belgian Tervuren, Keeshond, Dachshund, Labrador Retriever, Golden Retriever and Collie. (total-german-shepherd.com)
Drainage1
- can block drainage and cause hydrocephalus. (msdmanuals.com)
