Our study reports two nontwin sisters with late-onset Lennox-Gastaut syndrome and chromosome 15q duplication, showing the evolution, symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment of these patients, with the aim of increasing knowledge about this extremely rare association. They had a variety of generalized seizures types, intellectual disability, electroencephalogram with generalized epileptiform discharges less than 3 Hz, dysmorphisms, and genetic studies with the presence of duplicated chromosome 15. Cases reported here may be related to chromosomal changes inherited from their asymptomatic mother.
我们的研究报告了两名患有迟发性Lennox-Gastaut综合征和15号染色体q重复的非双胞胎姐妹,展示了这些患者的病情发展、症状、诊断和治疗情况,旨在增进对这种极其罕见关联的了解。她们有多种全身性癫痫发作类型、智力残疾、脑电图显示小于3赫兹的全身性癫痫样放电、畸形,以及存在15号染色体重复的基因研究结果。此处报告的病例可能与从无症状母亲遗传而来的染色体变化有关。
