There is scant evidence to guide the management of infantile spasms after successful response initial therapies. significant risk relapse, largely because effective pharmacologic treatments cannot be continued long term concern for adverse events. Zonisamide (ZNS) and topiramate (TPM) are commonly used prevent purpose this study was specifically evaluate efficacy ZNS TPM as agents secondary prevention spasms.Patients with video-electroencephalography (EEG) confirmed resolution were...

Spinal epidural abscess (SEA) is a rare process with significant risk for morbidity and mortality. Treatment includes an extended course of antibiotics or without surgery depending on the clinical presentation. Both non-operative surgically treated patients require close follow-up to ensure resolution infection recurrence and/or progression neurologic deficits. No previous study has looked specifically at in SEA population, but review literature does show evidence varying degrees difficulty...
An empyema necessitans is a rare complication of collection purulent material in the pleural space that spreads outside cavity and involves soft tissues chest wall. Due to compression forces created by size cavity, patients are usually symptomatic present with severe dyspnea. Chest X-ray or ultrasound ideal screening tools visualize followed computerized tomography scan confirm presence extent pathology. In occasions, can rupture spontaneously, which may lead critical situation requiring...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy of topiramate and zonisamide as secondary prevention medications after initial resolution infantile spasms. BACKGROUND: Infantile spasms is a potentially devastating form childhood epilepsy with multiple first-line therapies: prednisolone, ACTH, vigabatrin, surgery. Although modest data support use second line treatment for spasms, there no available involving potential utility preventing relapse successful response to therapy. DESIGN/METHODS: In this...
