CDH repair was done at 72 h of life and was uncomplicated.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;At age 6 months, recurrent status epilepticus developed with seizures involving unresponsiveness, writhing, and unusual eye movements, lasting &gt;60 min and requiring emergency medication to stop. In adolescence, seizure semiology changed to involve tachycardia, unilateral head and eye deviation, and eventually bilateral tonic–clonic convulsions. These events lasted ~2 min but occurred in clusters that almost always required emergency medications, such as diazepam, midazolam, or phenytoin, to stop. This pattern continued for many years despite the sequential addition of clonazepam, clobazam, lamotrigine, and levetiracetam. The family used rectal diazepam 20 mg as initial status epilepticus treatment before calling an ambulance. Seizure severity improved in late adolescence on lamotrigine 200 mg bid, levetiracetam 1500 mg bid, clobazam 10 mg morning, 35 mg evening, and clonazepam 1.5 mg morning, 2.5 mg evening.

His seizures were refractory to multiple anti-seizure medications (ASM), cannabidiol, and a ketogenic diet. In 2003, he was diagnosed with OSA on a home sleep study (records unavailable) despite prior tonsillectomy. In 2005, he underwent UPPP and went on to lose 64 pounds, lowering his BMI from 34.7 to 25.8 kg/m&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt;. All OSA symptoms resolved without the need for continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). In 2013, he was referred to an epilepsy surgical center where he first received left lesional corticoamygdalectomy as part of a two-stage approach to minimize risks of memory impairment from a resection in the dominant hemisphere. Nevertheless, a larger resection was later planned if seizures persisted.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He continued experiencing focal unaware seizures with gustatory aura, most commonly upon awakening and triggered by sleep deprivation. These seizures were confirmed by video-EEG telemetry in 2016 but he initially declined pursuing the second stage of the two-staged approach recommended by the epilepsy surgical center due to persistent fears of memory impairment. Instead, he received a VNS (SenTiva™ M1000) in 2019. After the procedure, the dosing of his Lamotrigine, Topiramate, and Clobazam (started in 2010) remained unchanged. The device's autotitration schedule was followed to an output current (OC) of 1 mA. Settings were then increased every 2 months to optimize seizure control. During autotitration, he reported recurrent hoarseness and shortness of breath (OC: 0.25 mA) and throat tightness (OC: 1.0 mA). These symptoms occurred for less than a minute every 5 min, consistent with respective VNS signals on and off-times. At the settings displayed in Table S1 (Supporting information), he started experiencing unrefreshing sleep, increased daytime somnolence, and worsened snoring according to his partner.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In 2021, a home sleep study was performed at a time when OSA symptoms remained unchanged despite OC reduction from 1.75 to 1.625 mA. The study (Figure 1) confirmed moderate OSA. Sleep-disordered breathing events occurred at an oddly consistent frequency of three to four times every 10 min, closely corresponding to the 3-min VNS cycle. Trials of dental appliances and CPAP failed. In 2022, due to seizure persistence and the side effects described above, he requested VNS removal.

EDSelFEC in the vascular group were significantly correlated with MRI changes showing white matter damage in addition to cortical damage (<i>p</i> =.02). 82.1% of EDSelFEC were located multifocal versus 4.8% multifocality in EDs other than EDSelFEC. EDSelFEC were significantly more often exacerbated by sodium channel blockers than EDs caused by structural (cortical) lesions. No differences were found between EDSelFEC+ and EDSelFEC− patients with respect to other variables studied.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Significance</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>A significant number of children with hemispheric epileptogenic lesions, particularly children with pre-/perinatal vascular lesions, hemiplegia, and white matter lesions in addition to cortical lesions, presented with coexisting EDSelFEC.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":50508,"journal":{"name":"Epileptic Disorders","volume":"27 1","pages":"52-63"},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142900032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
