Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: To determine in MECP2-mutated Rett syndrome (RTT [MIM 312750]): (1) the prevalence of drug-resistant epilepsy (DRE); (2) whether the presence of DRE is related to the abnormal EEG patterns or to the particular MECP2 mutant genotype. METHODS: Retrospective survey of a large population of patients (n=154) evaluated between 1978 to 2007 (May) at the Child Psychiatry and Neurology Unit of Siena (Italy)...
