Heterogeneous Contribution of Microdeletions in the Development of Common Generalized and Focal epilepsies

2017-04-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Microdeletions are known to confer risk to epilepsy, particularly at genomic rearrangement “hotspot” loci. However, deciphering their role outside hotspots and risk assessment by epilepsy sub-type has not been conducted. <h4>Methods</h4> We assessed the burden, frequency and genomic content of rare, large microdeletions found in a previously published cohort of 1,366 patien...
