Post-mortem review and genetic analysis of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) cases.

Brain pathology (Zurich, Switzerland) - 1 Mar 2011

Abstract excerpt

Sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP) is the most frequent epilepsy-related cause of death and is characterized by an absence of any identifiable cause of death at post-mortem, suggesting an underlying arrhythmogenic predisposition. This study sought to identify SUDEP cases in a review of post-mortem records and to undertake genetic studies in key familial long QT syndrome (LQTS) genes. All autopsies...
