Vagus nerve stimulation for generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS(+)) accompanying seizures with impaired consciousness
Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS(+)) is characterized by childhood-onset epilepsy syndrome. It involves febrile seizures and a variety of afebrile epileptic seizure types within the same pedigree with autosomal-dominant inheritance. Approximately 10% of individuals with GEFS(+)...

description | Generalized epilepsy with febrile seizures plus (GEFS(+)) is characterized by childhood-onset epilepsy syndrome. It involves febrile seizures and a variety of afebrile epileptic seizure types within the same pedigree with autosomal-dominant inheritance. Approximately 10% of individuals with GEFS(+) harbor SCN1A, a gene mutation in one of the voltage-gated sodium channel subunits. Considerably less common are focal epilepsies including focal seizures with impaired consciousness. We report vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) in a 6-year-old girl with GEFS(+) who exhibited drug-resistant generalized tonic-clonic seizures and focal seizures with impaired consciousness. |
