Rage syndrome is a rare seizure disorder in dogs, characterized by explosive aggression. [1] [2] [3]It is frequently confused with idiopathic aggression, a term for aggression with no identifiable cause.
Canine epileptoid cramping syndrome (CECS), previously known as Spike's disease, is a hereditary dog disease initially found in Border Terriers and has since been documented in many other dog breeds including Labrador Retrievers and Chihuahuas, with similarities to canine epilepsy. Its cause is unknown. [1]
Cats can have reactive, primary or secondary seizures. Idiopathic seizures are not as common in cats as in dogs; however, a 2008 study conducted showed that of 91 feline seizures, 25% were suspected to have had idiopathic epilepsy. [11] In the same group of 91 cats, 50% were secondary seizures and 20% reactive. [11]
More than 50 out of 100 children outgrow their epilepsy. In children with new-onset seizures, 74 out of 100 become seizure-free within 2 years. The odds were in Seideman's favor.
Within ten years of developing symptoms, life expectancy declines. People who advance to adulthood tend to lose their ability to do daily tasks by themselves, which can require comprehensive care. If their symptoms progress extremely quickly or at an early age, patients receive comprehensive care, which – besides medication – means support ...
Barbets are a relatively healthy breed with a life expectancy of 13 to 15. Due to the rarity of the breed, there is limited data on breed-specific concerns. They can have hip dysplasia, epilepsy, and like most long-eared dogs are prone to ear infections. [3] The Barbet is a rare breed, which limits the genetic variety available.
Infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) previously known as West syndrome needs the inclusion of epileptic spasms for diagnosis. [1] Epileptic spasms (also known as infantile spasms) may also occur outside of a syndrome (that is, in the absence of hypsarrhythmia and cognitive regression) - notably in association with severe brain disorders (e.g. lissencephaly).
