- W2414835547 abstract "This survey covered male Singapore citizens born in 1974 who were medically screened at the age of 18 years before enlistment for compulsory military service. Suspected epileptics were referred to government hospitals for further management. Out of 20,542 men, there were 121 epileptics, giving a cumulative incidence of 5 per 1000 by age 18 years. We had information on 106 (87%) of these individuals and were able to interview them and review their hospital records. Seventy-three of the 106 (69%) epileptics had generalised seizures while 14 (13%) had refractory seizures. There was no statistically significant racial bias amongst these epileptics. Unprovoked afebrile seizures occurred early in these patients, half of whom had seizures onset before 7 years of age. Nine refractory epileptics had a history of febrile seizures, 4 of which were complex febrile seizures. Magnetic resonance imaging identified mesial temporal sclerosis in 2 patients and a hypothalamic lesion in 1 patient. Computed tomographic scans revealed focal cortical atrophy in 2 patients. Nine other patients had normal imaging studies. Nine out of 14 (64%) patients with refractory epilepsy had partial seizures; 4 (29%) had generalised seizures and 1 (7%) was unclassified. This is in contrast to the distribution of the entire cohort of epileptics studied. Two out of 9 patients with refractory partial seizures (gelastic epilepsy and mesial temporal sclerosis) had undergone surgery while 6 of the other 7 patients refused to consider surgery." @default.
