EPILEPSY AND DEFORMITY OF SKULL BONES: COINCIDENCE OR RELATIONSHIP?

Abstract

In this report we analyzed 4 cases with refractory epilepsy and congenital deformity of skull bones. Seizures, results of long scalp EEG-monitoring and preoperative imaging presented possible relationship of bone deformity and epilepsy. Two patients underwent frontal decompressive surgery and had positive outcomes. There are some reports of epilepsy and deformity of skull bones in the literature. Therefore the relationship between epilepsy and deformity of skull bones can be possible.
