Management of epilepsy associated with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC): Clinical recommendations
Tijdschriftbijdrage - Tijdschriftartikel
Tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is a leading genetic cause of epilepsy. TSC-associated
epilepsy generally begins during the first year of life, and is associated with neurodevelopmental
and cognitive problems. Management is challenging and seizures tend to
persist in a large proportion of patients despite pharmacological and surgical treatment.
This report summarizes the clinical recommendations for the management of TSCassociated
epilepsy made by a panel of European experts in March 2012. Current treatment
options and outstanding questions are outlined.
