- Malignant migrating partial seizures of infancy (MMPSI) is a rare epileptic syndrome that onsets before 6 months of age, commonly in the first few weeks of life. Once seizures start, the site of seizure activity repeatedly migrates from one area of the brain to another, with few periods of remission in between. These seizures are 'focal' (updated term for 'partial'), meaning they do not affect both sides of the brain at the same time. These continuous seizures cause damage to the brain, hence the descriptor 'malignant.' The cause often is not known, although mutation of the KCNT1 gene has shown to be associated. Another gene implicated is PLCB1. MMPSI is diagnosed based on signs, symptoms, and electroencephalogram (EEG) findings. As of 2012, 80 cases have been reported. It was first described in 1995 by Copolla et al. (en)
- L'épilepsie partielle migrante est un syndrome épileptique infantile sévère décrit pour la première fois en 1995 par les services de l'hôpital Saint-Vincent-de-Paul à Paris lors d'une étude rétrospective présentant quatorze cas. Dix-huit autres cas ont depuis été ajoutés à la littérature médicale anglophone. (fr)
