Menopoz Döneminde Başlayan Epilepsi: 5 Olgunun Sunumu
Journal Title: Journal of Neurological Sciences-Turkish - Year 2007, Vol 24, Issue 4
Abstract
Epilepsi sıklığı kadınlarla erkekler arasında eşit dağılım gösterir. Fakat erkeklerden farklı olarak menarş, gebelik, menopoz, hormon replasman tedavisi (HRT) ve oral kontraseptif kullanımı gibi durumlar kadınlarda epilepsinin seyrini etkileyebilmektedir. Literatürdeki az sayıdaki çalışmada daha önce herhangi bir epilepsi öyküsü olmayan kadınlarda da epilepsinin ilk olarak menopoz döneminde başlangıç gösterebildiği bildirilmektedir. Bu sunumda, epileptik nöbetlerin ilk olarak postmenopozal dönemde ortaya çıktığı 5 olgu tartışılacaktır.
