Abstract excerpt
Dravet syndrome, one of the epileptic encephalopathies of childhood, is a genetic epilepsy caused by SCN1A mutation in 70-80% of the cases. Other genetic variants have been revealed in SCN1A-negative patients with Dravet syndrome. We investigated the utility of targeted gene panel testing in patients with Dravet syndrome and delineated the genotype-phenotype correlation. Targeted epilepsy gene panel testing...
