Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The chromosome 15q13.3 region is a genomic rearrangement hotspot linked to idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGEs) and such rearrangements remain the strongest risk factor for IGE known to date. Increasing evidence suggests that genetic variations can be highly population-specific. Therefore, we aimed to assess the frequency of 15q13.3 microdeletions in IGE patients from Bulgaria. METHODS: A cohort of...
