摘要：

A 6.5-year-old boy developed seizures at age 2.8 years consisting of episodes of unconsciousness and laughing attacks. By age 6 years, multiple seizure types, including generalized tonic-clonic (GTC), complex partial (CPS) and akinetic seizures, and drop attacks were occurring several times daily. EEG showed multifocal epileptic discharges. Antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) did not control the seizures. With progression of the epilepsy, cognitive deterioration developed. There were no manifestations of precocious puberty. Neuroimaging disclosed a suprasellar mass in continuity with the hypothalamus, and a diagnosis of hypothalamic hamartoma was made. After surgical resection of the hamartoma, the seizures were completely alleviated, and the epileptic EEG discharges disappeared. Improvement of mental function was also noted.
