Impact of our understanding of the genetic aetiology of epilepsy.

Journal of neurology - 1 May 2000

Gardiner R M

Abstract excerpt

A genetic contribution to aetiology is estimated to be present in up to 40% of patients with epilepsy. It is useful to categorise genetic epilepsies according to the mechanisms of inheritance into Mendelian disorders, non-mendelian or 'complex' disorders, and chromosomal disorders. Over 200 Mende...
