Epileptic encephalopathies are the most important clinical group for genetic testing with an increasing number of distinctive epilepsy syndromes being recognized. Identification of the causative mutation affects treatment as well as prognostic and genetic counseling. | Gov't Doc #: | 21836823 | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/11318 | DOI: | 10.5698/1535-7511-11.4.107 | Journal: | Epilepsy currents / American Epilepsy Society | URL: | https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21836823 | Type: | Journal Article |
