Patient's question:
Hypoxic encephalopathy caused by lack of oxygen at birth resulted in cerebral palsy, right cerebral atrophy, and calcification points. At 19 months of age, there was a seizure episode, and epilepsy was suspected. After one week, an electroencephalogram (EEG) was normal, ruling out epilepsy. At 28 months of age, another seizure occurred, with upward rolling of the eyes. The Beijing Children's Hospital confirmed epilepsy.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is caused by epilepsy. Epilepsy is an episodic disease. It is mainly due to excessive abnormal discharge of neuronal groups in the brain, leading to dysfunction of brain function. This brain dysfunction can manifest in many forms clinically, the most common being the convulsive phenomenon that everyone sees. With scientific and systematic medical treatment, 97% of epilepsy patients can be completely cured. Patients need to pay special attention to the selection of treatment methods. Oral medication and minimally invasive surgery are treatment methods. The recurrence rate after surgery is very low. Medications such as carbamazepine tablets, phenytoin tablets, and Dingxian pills.
