Posthipoksik Aksiyon Miyoklonisi Gelişen Bir Olguda Levetirasetama Yanıt
Journal Title: Journal of Neurological Sciences-Turkish - Year 2007, Vol 24, Issue 3
Abstract
Posthipoksik aksiyon miyoklonisi (PAM) hipoksik beyin hasarı sonrasında gelişebilir ve farmakolojik tedaviye dirençlidir. Sunulan hastada PAM sonucu oluşan çok ciddi miyoklonik sıçramalar hastayı tamamen işgöremez hale getirmiştir.Hastanın miyoklonileri velproat, topiramat, klonazepam ve baklofen gibi sık kullanılan tedavi ajanlarının tek başına ya da bir arada kullanımına yanıt vermemiştir, ancak levetirasetam başlandıktan sonra önemli ölçüde düzelme gözlenmiştir.
