Hypersomnias

We report a patient with polysomnography findings related to hypersomnia, as a primary presenting symptom, who was shown to have stereotypical gelastic seizures. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Fatigue

    The only symptom is excessive fatigue. Secondary hypersomnia is due to other medical conditions. These can include sleep apnea, Parkinson’s disease, kidney failure, and chronic fatigue syndrome. [healthline.com]

  • Dysostosis

    Abstract Polysomnography and blood gas measurements during sleep in a young man with craniofacial dysostosis, who presented with an extremely severe sleep apnea syndrome, are reported. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Kayser-Fleischer Ring

    Kayser-Fleischer ring was not detectable. D-penicillamine (DPA) was introduced. At 8-10 months after the initiation of the therapy the patient's complaints gradually resolved. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Intermittent Slow Activity

    Electroencephalographic (EEG) background activity for this individual was slightly slowed in the EEG during an episode of hypersomnia, and intermittent slow activity was found in addition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Gliosis

    Severe neuronal loss and gliosis were observed in the midbrain and pontine raphe, particularly in dorsal raphe nucleus and superior central nucleus. Pontine and medullary reticular formation also showed a marked cell loss and fibrillary gliosis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Brain Edema

    A 53-year-old male patient was diagnosed as a left cerebellar infarct, and underwent decompressive suboccipital craniectomy due to brain edema at 2 days after the onset of a cerebellar infarct. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • White Matter Lesions

    A CT study found hyperostosis and corresponding microcephaly in 71% and ventriculomegaly in 13% of patients.9 However, using MRI, ventriculomegaly was evident in 71%.10 Studies with MRI are conflicting with respect to the presence of white matter lesions [jnnp.bmj.com]

  • HLA-DR1

    Both patients share the same HLA haplotype (HLA-DR1, DQ1) which has been found in Kleine-Levin syndrome. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Type and frequency of substance use were assessed at treatment entry. Substance use was also assessed 12 months following treatment completion. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

The attacks usually continue indefinitely. x Prognosis The prognosis for persons with hypersomnia depends on the cause of the disorder. [ninds.nih.gov]

Referral to a sleep specialist is required in performing objective sleep studies, establishing the diagnosis, recommending treatment, and providing a prognosis. Many sleep disorders are treatable and aeromedically waiverable. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis The prognosis for persons with hypersomnia depends on the cause of the disorder. While the disorder itself is not life threatening, it can have serious consequences, such as automobile accidents caused by falling asleep while driving. [brainfacts.org]

Thus, this case suggests that vitamin B12 may be effective for preventing recurrent hypersomnia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

If all these treatments are not helpful then the last resort is surgery to prevent blockage of airways while sleeping. [epainassist.com]

Physicians should give an attention to the sleep symptoms to prevent the delay in the diagnosis and effective intervention. [e-jsm.org]
