[c.2575C>T] Clinical description

The five-generation pedigree come from Caucasian family, and contained 27 individuals, ten of them affected. Four affected individuals had presented with GEFS+, two affected individuls with GTCS without FS, while other four subjects had only simple FS. The proband (V-1) had only presented with generalized tonic clonic seizures with fever or without fever, and referred for evaluation for intractable epilepsy. The electroencephalogram analysis showed generalized intermittent polymorphic delta slowing, and the MRI showed no structural abnormality after anterior 2/3 callosotomy(Barela AJ,et al. J Neurosci. 2006 Mar 8;26(10): 2714-23. [16525050]).
