• Movement Disorder

  Neurologists should be aware of this rare form of PME, its phenotypical variability, including ataxia and other movement disorders apart from myoclonus. Further clinical and molecular descriptions of this entity are needed. Table 1. [onlinelibrary.wiley.com]

  These diseases share certain features, including a worsening of symptoms over time and the presence of both muscle contractions (myoclonus) and seizures (epilepsy). PME is different from myoclonic epilepsy. [diseaseinfosearch.org]

  Compared to JME, they do not respond well to medications and get worse over time. Generalized tonic-clonic seizures are also common in PME. [epilepsy.com]

  During the trials, patients were randomised to various dosages of Zebinix or placebo and after a 2-week titration period, were assessed over a 12-week maintenance period, with continued follow-up over a one year open-label period. [ots.at]

  Over 15 specific disorders can cause the PME syndrome; all are rare, and individual physicians are unlikely to have experience in all of them. Accurate diagnosis is essential to provide a prognosis, optimal therapy, and genetic counseling. [journals.lww.com]

  Other features include dementia, dystonia, and trouble walking or speaking. These rare disorders often get worse over time and sometimes are fatal. Many of these PME diseases begin in childhood or adolescence. [diseaseinfosearch.org]

The medical treatment of progressive myoclonic epilepsy is limited to supportive and symptomatic treatment. The treatment is often successful only for a few months or years. There is no current cure for PME. [epilepsy.com]
