Unusual sensitivity to steroid treatment in intractable childhood epilepsy suggests GLUT1 deficiency syndrome.

Neuropediatrics - 1 Oct 2012

Vieker Silvia, Schmitt Jörg, Längler Alfred, Schmidt Winfried, Klepper Joerg

Abstract excerpt

Glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1) deficiency syndrome (DS) results from impaired glucose transport into brain. We describe the case of an 8-year-old girl with early-onset myoclonic epilepsy unresponsive to eight anticonvulsants. Oral steroid treatment achieved dramatic seizure control at the expense...
