| Résumé : | Temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) is a common and heterogeneous focal epilepsy syndrome with a complex etiology, involving both environmental and genetic factors. Several familial forms of TLE have been described, including familial lateral TLE (FLTLE), familial mesial TLE (FMTLE) without hippocampal sclerosis, and FMTLE with hippocampal sclerosis. Mutations have been identified only in the leucine-rich, glioma-inactivated 1 (LGI1) gene on chromosome 10q22-q24 in FLTLE. Several loci have been mapped in families with FMTLE, but responsible genes have not been found. We report clinical evaluation in a large family with FMTLE and a new genetic locus. |
