Purpose:
The aim of the study was to identify the risk factors for seizures in patients with ischemic stroke using clinical, functional, neuroimaging research methods.
Materials and methods:
The results of the complex survey of 468 patients suffering from ischemic stroke (256 patients experienced epileptic seizures and 203 experienced no epileptic seizures) are presented. The diagnostic procedures included clinical evaluation, magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography, extracranial and transcranial Doppler sonography. In addition the assessment of the rate of sodium lithium countertransport (the marker of genetically determined on transport mechanisms of cell membranes) in patients with c ischemic stroke with the development of epileptic seizures and no seizures was carried out.
Results:
The focal seizures are the most common (92,5%). Cortical ischemic brain lesions prevailed in patients with seizures (81,1%), whereas in the control group cortex was affected in 38,9% patients (χ2=89.2, |
