Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
613720 | OMIM | Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 7 (DEE7) | An autosomal dominant seizure disorder characterized by infantile onset of refractory seizures with resultant delayed neurologic development and persistent neurologic abnormalities. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
121200 | OMIM | Seizures, benign familial neonatal 1 (BFNS1) | A disorder characterized by clusters of seizures occurring in the first days of life. Most patients have spontaneous remission by 12 months of age and show normal psychomotor development. Some rare cases manifest an atypical severe phenotype associated with epileptic encephalopathy and psychomotor retardation. The disorder is distinguished from benign familial infantile seizures by an earlier age at onset. In some patients, neonatal convulsions are followed later in life by myokymia, a benign condition characterized by spontaneous involuntary contractions of skeletal muscles fiber groups that can be observed as vermiform movement of the overlying skin. Electromyography typically shows continuous motor unit activity with spontaneous oligo- and multiplet-discharges of high intraburst frequency (myokymic discharges). Some patients may have isolated myokymia. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
