| Abstract (English): | The Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome is characterized by the presence of cerebral hemiatrophy, craneal vault thickening, epileptic seizures, hemiparesis, and cognitive impairment. It is typically diagnosed in childhood and requires specific diagnostic tools for accurate assessment. This report describes the case of a 19-year-old woman who presented with epileptic seizures and regression in neurodevelopment. She was admitted to the emergency department due to high ictal frequency. During her hospitalization, imaging and electroencephalographic findings were consistent with Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome. Additionally, neuropsychological tests revealed global cognitive impairment. After ten days of hospitalization and five days without epileptic seizures, the patient was discharged. Dyke-Davidoff-Masson syndrome is a rare and often unrecognized condition with high morbidity. Clinicians has the responsibility to identify the key characteristics of the syndrome and perform an adequate differential diagnosis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
| Abstract (Spanish): | El síndrome de Dyke-Davidoff-Masson se caracteriza por hemiatrofia cerebral, engrosamiento de la calota, crisis epilépticas, hemiparesia y discapacidad cognitiva. Usualmente, se diagnostica en la infancia y, para ello, se requieren ayudas diagnósticas específicas. Se describe el caso de una mujer de 19 años, que se inició con crisis epilépticas y regresión del neurodesarrollo. Ingresó al servicio de urgencias por la gran frecuencia ictal. Durante la hospitalización, se documentaron hallazgos imagenológicos y electroencefalográficos indicativos de síndrome de Dyke-Davidoff-Masson. Además, se practicaron pruebas neuropsicológicas que demostraron discapacidad cognitiva global. Tras diez días de hospitalización y cinco días sin crisis epilépticas, la paciente fue dada de alta. El síndrome de Dyke-Davidoff-Masson es una entidad rara, poco reconocida y con gran morbilidad. El deber del médico tratante es identificar las características clave del síndrome y llevar a cabo un adecuado diagnóstico diferencial. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
