Abstract:
Epilepsy of infancy with migrating focal seizure (EIMFS) is a rare drug-resistant epilepsy syndrome with characteristic migrating EEG presentation. In recent years, with increased discovery of new pathogenic genes in this syndrome, our knowledge and understanding on pathophysiological mechanisms of this syndrome have been broadened. This article systematically summarizes the genes associated with EIMFS that have been reported at home and abroad to expand clinicians' understanding of the disease and provide references for identifying the disease.
