Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
617938 | OMIM | Developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 62 (DEE62) | A form of epileptic encephalopathy, a heterogeneous group of severe childhood onset epilepsies characterized by refractory seizures, neurodevelopmental impairment, and poor prognosis. Development is normal prior to seizure onset, after which cognitive and motor delays become apparent. DEE62 is characterized by onset of seizures in the first year of life. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
617935 | OMIM | Epilepsy, familial focal, with variable foci 4 (FFEVF4) | An autosomal dominant form of epilepsy characterized by focal seizures arising from different cortical regions, including the temporal, frontal, parietal, and occipital lobes. Seizure types commonly include temporal lobe epilepsy, frontal lobe epilepsy, and nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy. Some patients may have intellectual disability or autism spectrum disorders. Seizure onset usually occurs in the first or second decades, although later onset has been reported, and there is phenotypic variability within families. A subset of patients have structural brain abnormalities. Penetrance of the disorder is incomplete. FFEVF4 is characterized by onset of focal seizures in the first years of life. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
