  • Analysis of the causes of infant spasm

    ObjectiveTo analysis the causes of infant spasm (IS) and provide a theoretical basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. MethodsCollected the clinical data of 116 IS cases in our hospital from May 2011 to December 2013, which conform to the diagnostic standard, and analysis its causes. ResultsIn the116 cases we collected, symptomatic IS is primarily for 78 cases (67.24%); the onset age of symptomatic IS within 6 months was 76.39% (55/72), higher than the rates of symptomatic IS beyond 6 months 52.27% (23/44) (P=0.007); The pathogenic factor in symptomatic IS, prenatal accounted for 48.72%, intrapartum factors accounted for 34.62%; for sexually transmitted diseases accounted for 47.44%, venereal disease accounted for 52.56%. In 78 cases of symptomatic IS, gender has no relation with its pathogenic factors; the onset age within 6 months of antepartum and intrapartum factor is significantly higher than the rates of symptomatic IS beyond 6 months (89.09% VS 69.57%); distribution between urban and rural areas and its pathogenic factors is related, prenatal factors of urban IS significantly lower than which in rural areas (38.30% VS 64.51%), intrapartum factor IS significantly higher than the rural IS (44.68% VS 19.35%). ConclusionThe cause of the IS given priority to with symptomatic, IS in the majority with, and prenatal or developmental factors in the higher flight in symptomatic, and the smaller of the onset age antepartum and intrapartum factor becomes more apparent, prenatal factors in the rural areas is higher than which in the unban areas, but intrapartum factor in the unban areas is higher than which in the rural areas. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) still plays an important role in etiology diagnosis.

  • Clinical features and electroencephalogram characteristics of tuberous sclerosis complex in children with epilepsy

    ObjectiveTo probe the clinical features and the characteristics of radiography and electroencephalogram (EEG) of tuberous sclerosis complex(TSC) in children with epilepsy. MethodsThe clinical data of the TSC cases with epilepsy were collected from inpatients in Jiangxi Children's Hospital from Jan. 2013 to Oct. 2015. ResultsAmong the 26 cases, 21 cases(21/26, 80.77%) involved abnormalities of the skin. Of these patients, there were 10 cases with hypomelanotic macules, 7 cases with café au lait spots and 4 cases with facial angiofibromas. There were no significant difference among the different age groups. In addition, there were 8 cases (8/26, 30.77%) with spasm seizures, of whom 3 cases had partial seizure, 10 cases (10/26, 38.46%) with complex partial seizure, 5 cases(5/26, 19.23%) with secondary generalized seizure, 2 cases(2/26, 7.69%) with tonic-clonic seizure and one case with Lennox-Gastaut syndrom(1/26, 3.85%). The average onset age of the epileptic spasms group were younger than those of the other epilepsy groups (t=2.143, P=0.042). EEG monitoring demonstrated hypsarrhythmia in 7 cases (7/26, 26.92%) in the interictal EEG, focal epileptic discharges in 11 cases (11/26, 42.31%), multifocal discharges in 5 cases, the slow background activity in 2 cases and the normal EEG in one case. Cranial imaging demonstrated subependymal nodules (SEN) in 25 cases(25/26, 96.15%) was the most common. ConclusionThe clinical manifestations and seizure types of TSC in children, especially in infants and young children, were diverse and age-dependent. It was very important to improve understanding of the clinical features and related risks of TSC at various ages, which was helpful to diagnose TSC early.
