Area of Science:

  • Neonatal neurology
  • Clinical genetics
  • Pediatric epilepsy

Background:

  • Seizures are the most frequent sign of neurological impairment in newborns.
  • Identifying the cause of neonatal seizures is essential for guiding treatment, predicting outcomes, and assessing recurrence risks.

Observation:

  • This article presents two distinct cases of neonatal seizures.
  • The cases involve rare, genetically determined etiologies underlying the seizures.

Findings:

  • The presented cases illustrate unusual genetic causes of seizures in newborns.
  • A systematic diagnostic approach is highlighted for these complex cases.

Implications:

  • Accurate etiological diagnosis in neonatal seizures, particularly genetic forms, is vital for tailored management.
  • Understanding rare genetic causes improves diagnostic strategies and patient outcomes in neonatal neurology.
