    A rare, potentially fatal, epileptic encephalopathy characterized by explosive-onset of recurrent multifocal and bilateral tonic-clonic seizures following an unspecific febrile illness. The syndrome develops without a clear acute structural, toxic or metabolic cause, in a patient without previous epilepsy. FIRES is a subgroup of new-onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) and requires a preceding febrile infection as a mandatory feature. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    A rare genetic progressive myoclonic epilepsy characterized by childhood onset of progressive dysarthria, myoclonus, ataxia, seizures, and cognitive decline. The disease takes a protracted course with patients surviving into adulthood, developing signs and symptoms like psychosis with outbursts of prolonged agitation and screaming, spasticity and hyperreflexia, confusion, mutism, and incontinence. There are no visual disturbances. Muscle biopsy shows numerous periodic acid-Schiff-positive inclusions, so-called Lafora bodies. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    A rare childhood-onset epilepsy syndrome associated with infection and characterized by a biphasic clinical course. The initial symptom is a prolonged febrile seizure on day 1 (the first phase). Afterwards, patients have variable levels of consciousness from normal to coma. Irrespective of the consciousness levels, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) during the first 2 days shows no abnormality. During the second phase (usually days 4 - 6), patients show a cluster of seizures and deterioration of consciousness. Diffusion-weighted images (DWI) on MRI reveal the brain lesions with reduced diffusion predominantly in the subcortical white matter. After the second acute phase, consciousness levels improve with the emerging focal neurological signs. Neurological outcomes of AESD vary from normal to mild or severe sequelae including cerebral atrophy, mental retardation, paralysis and epilepsy.

    Acquired epileptic aphasia Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    A rare genetic neurological disorder characterised by late infancy to early-adolescence onset of prolonged, nocturnal seizures which begin with autonomic features (e.g. vomiting, pallor, sweating) and associate tonic eye deviation, impairment of consciousness and may evolve to a hemi-clonic or generalised convulsion. Autonomic status epilepticus may be the only clinical event in some cases. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    Early-onset epileptic encephalopathy and intellectual disability due to GRIN2A mutation is a rare intellectual disability and epilepsy syndrome characterized by global developmental delay and mild to profound intellectual disability, multiple types of usually intractable focal and generalized seizures with variable abnormal EEG findings, and bilateral progressive parenchymal volume loss and thin corpus callosum on brain MRI. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    A rare genetic neurological disorder with characteristics of childhood to mid-adolescence onset of frequent, brief, diurnal simple partial seizures which usually begin with visual hallucinations (e.g. phosphenes) and/or ictal blindness and may associate non visual seizures (such as deviation of the eyes, oculo clonic seizures), forced eyelid closure and blinking and sensory hallucinations. Post-ictal headache is common while impairment of consciousness is rare. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    A rare disorder of branched-chain amino acid metabolism characterized by childhood-onset epilepsy, autism and intellectual disability with reduced levels of plasma branched chain aminoacids. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    Early-onset spastic ataxia-myoclonic epilepsy-neuropathy syndrome is a rare hereditary spastic ataxia disorder characterized by childhood onset of slowly progressive lower limb spastic paraparesis and cerebellar ataxia (with dysarthria, swallowing difficulties, motor degeneration), associated with sensorimotor neuropathy (including muscle weakness and distal amyotrophy in lower extremities) and progressive myoclonic epilepsy. Ocular signs (ptosis, oculomotor apraxia), dysmetria, dysdiadochokinesia, dystonic movements and myoclonus may also be associated. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    Cryptogenic late-onset epileptic spasms is a rare epilepsy syndrome characterized by late-onset (after 1 year old) epileptic spasms that occur in clusters, associated with tonic seizures, atypical absences and cognitive deterioration. Language difficulties and behavior problems are frequently present. EEG is characterized by a temporal, or temporofrontal, slow wave or spike focus combined with synchronous spike-waves and no hypsarrhythmia or background activity. Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
    déficience intellectuelle associée à SYNGAP1 (synaptic Ras GTPase activating protein 1) Is a False Childhood seizure Inferred relationship Some
